Li Zichou's bad joke of a friend, Yang Dejin, made a prediction that came true: the two of them transmigrated into a power-fantasy novel starring a woman, where they became a pair of villainous cannon fodder characters.
Li Zichou looked down at the dazzlingly bright imperial robe she was wearing. "...Yang Dejin, what is wrong with that cursed mouth of yours?"
Yang Dejin, who had transmigrated into Prince Yu, a woman concealing her identity by dressing as a man, said, "Zichou, you transmigrated too? That's wonderful!"
Li Zichou took a deep breath. "...Not really."
The original story's premise: At the beginning of the reign of the first female ruler of the Great Sheng, the heroine, Bai Qingyang, was forcibly made empress. Burdened with a terrible crime, she lay low and bided her time in the palace, secretly sowing discord between the empress and the prince, then reaped the rewards and seized the throne herself.
One was a bloodthirsty, tyrannical empress who indulged in every excess. The other was an ambitious prince who was secretly a woman.
They were both supposed to die, but the pair found their happy ending.
Li Zichou and Yang Dejin made a pact: before their appointed deaths arrived, they would do everything they could to change their fates. Neither of them was allowed to give up.
To stay alive, Li Zichou built an army, developed infrastructure, and worked hard to raise the heroine's favorability, laying the groundwork for her ascension to the throne. Restoring Great Sheng to glory was a duty her generation couldn't shirk!
Yang Dejin, meanwhile, kept unlocking new skills. She could serve in court and cook in the kitchen, running businesses while building a private army, and occasionally helping the Ministry of Justice's Vice Minister, Xie Zhirui, solve cases.
But neither of them had expected that their solo opponents would both have a second chance: one had been reborn after taking her own life, and another had gone back in time.
Not one of the four had a first run at this.
Later...
Li Zichou frowned. "Don't you think Xie Zhirui looks at you a little strangely?"
Yang Dejin frowned too. "Impossible! I only like girls! I think Bai Qingyang still has feelings for you, though!"
Li Zichou slapped the table. "Impossible! Bai Qingyang is completely straight!"
Yang Dejin slapped the table too. "Then I'm a total lesbian!"
Bai Qingyang: .
Xie Zhirui: .
Li Zichou, with her survival instinct turned up to the max x Bai Qingyang, the reborn female lead
Yang Dejin, a natural-born actor who transmigrated into a book x Xie Zhirui, a time traveler who disguises herself as a man
A fun story where everyone gets a second chance

Important Reading Guide:
1. Set in a fictional world, with no identifiable dynasty.
2. Lots of original worldbuilding, with some details based on online encyclopedias.
3. My writing is limited, so feel free to keep reading or move on.
4. Plot takes priority, romance is secondary.
5. A clean, straightforward story.
6. Regarding pronouns, when other characters interact with someone concealing her gender, those in the know use "she," while those who don't know use "he," including in dialogue and inner thoughts. (Fun fact: "he" can be used as a generic pronoun.)
Theme: Wherever you go, you may meet again
Ah! Sweet!! Li Zizhen, you have no intention, how could you not do it!
If they don't know how to put it back together, they've never done it before. I really can't bear it, Li Ziqiu
If I were the emperor in the book, I would never allow the heroine to get close to me or have contact with the courtiers. Rather than wait until later, I would rather kill the heroine when she has no power in order to prevent long nights and dreams, and then slowly transform myself from a coward to a wise king, consolidate my power, secure the throne, and eliminate dissidents.
How could you hold back in the face of such a sweet and clingy little Bai Li Ziqiu!
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha socket has become the door to the second dimension. Hey, back to the days when I was persecuted by papers, I have already begun to look forward to it (with bad intentions).
Tsk, tsk, tsk, Li Ziqiu, have you ever given up drugs? How can you resist doing it at this age? Finished with flowers~
Hhhhhhhhhhhhhh The part about the ID card is simply outrageous and has a weird persuasiveness to it. After all, reality is really magical (it's hard not to admit this after watching the news in the past few years) If tutors take academics seriously, it is generally difficult to accept the generation of academic garbage (qaq, but they seem not to have considered the knowledge gap between students and tutors!!! If you are not serious about academics, then 80% of the time you will be able to wait until the end of the world (bushi) by asking a question once. Alas, everyone should take care of themselves
How can you sleep at your age? Get up and update!
I thought it was just two friends wearing it back to doge
Xiaojin, the king of words, bronze in actual combat Although sometimes I can be reckless in my words and actions once or twice, but as soon as I regain my composure, I immediately return to my original form (it's really not surprising at all and I enjoy watching it with gusto x
