The Royal Princess's Madcap Daily Life

Jiang Chengyu spent her whole life fighting for power. She failed to win the throne, and after she died, she wasn't even granted the honorific title of Grand Princess.

Reborn, Jiang Chengyu came to her senses. If she's going to die sooner or later, then everyone might as well die together!

Now that she'd been reborn and no longer cared about the throne, Jiang Chengyu acted with even less restraint. One day, she beat the Marquis of Xiangyang half to death in front of all the ministers at a palace banquet. A couple of days later, she led a troop into the Prince of Lunan's residence and spread rumors that he was plotting a rebellion!

Seeing the Grand Princess grow more and more reckless, everyone scrambled to get away from her and ran to complain to the emperor.

Emperor Mingzhao was troubled too. Before his grandmother and mother passed away, they had repeatedly warned him to spare his young aunt's life, no matter how treasonous her future actions might be.

To avoid disappointing his two elders, Emperor Mingzhao had agreed, twice, with a headache. But after years of cleaning up the messes of this imperial aunt, who was a year younger than his eldest daughter, he was already exhausted in body and mind...

Now, as it looked like she was about to tear down the imperial palace itself, he dug out a marriage edict his grandmother had left behind, one that had never been announced.

When Jiang Chengyu learned that her imperial nephew wanted to grant her the Chu family's brat, who hadn't even grown his first whiskers, she gave a cold laugh. That reminded her.

Aside from failing to sit on the throne in her previous life, her only other regret was that she had never managed to drag Chu Jian, that "flower atop a high ridge," into the princess's residence.

Every time she was close to succeeding, something unexpected would happen!

What? You say a melon forced off the vine isn't sweet? Hah! Let her take a couple of bites first, then they can talk about whether it's sweet!

With a few swift strokes of her brush, she changed the name of the intended groom on the edict from "Chu You" to his second uncle, "Chu Jian."

Before the Grand Princess married into the Chu family, Duke Chu was furious. "My son is as graceful as a celestial tree. He absolutely cannot be paired with that madwoman!"

Chu Jian: "..."

After the Grand Princess married into the Chu family, Duke Chu gave him some well-meant advice. "The Grand Princess has it hard too. Don't go around with a cold face all the time. Be a little warmer. Otherwise, if the Grand Princess comes to her senses and takes a younger lover, you'll be the one crying."

Chu Jian: "..."

Reader's Guide:

1. The heroine is a little crazy and thoroughly shameless. Rather than torment herself, she'd rather blame others. She outranks everyone, and her manners are anyone's guess.

2. The heroine is reborn. Her ancestor, the founding emperor, was a transmigrator and is often mentioned in the story, so this is a transmigration-to-ancient-times novel.

3. There is an eight-year age gap, with the man older. After the heroine is reborn, it is a one-on-one romance with both leads' first times. In her previous life, the heroine, as a Grand Princess, kept two or three handsome male consorts in her residence, while the hero was a lifelong bachelor.
