The Grand Princess Rules the World

Xiao Qinlan transmigrated.

Her father went from a powerful regional governor to the founding emperor.

After transmigrating, she was blessed with a family like this. She should have been able to lounge around in comfort, living the carefree life of a rich idler.

But the new dynasty had only just been established, and its foundations were unstable. Her father was eager to pacify the realm, so he personally led an army into battle. The entire force was wiped out.

In a single night, the throne stood vacant as the feudal lords across the realm began to stir.

The words “princess of a fallen dynasty” could never lead to a happy ending. Besides, the family she had inherited had truly loved her.

She couldn’t let the empire they had left behind become prey for others to butcher.

The next day, she attended court from behind the curtain as the legitimate princess.

Everyone at court thought she would be an easy puppet to control. And in truth, she did seem like one: quiet and docile, never saying much. When no one was paying attention, she sought out Lu Chengyun.

Lu Chengyun was the legitimate son of the imperial clan. Exiled to an estate as a child, he was summoned back only when the realm was in crisis, made a pawn to shield his favored older brother from disaster.

She made him her most useful blade.

She helped him kill his brother and clear away the imperial clan’s rivals, even personally killing her childhood friend.

Step by step, she finally put Lu Chengyun in the lonely position of the supreme ruler, making him the most obedient sword in her hand.

The last time she sent him off to battle, she personally helped him into his armor.

Lu Chengyun lowered his eyes, his old ambition transformed into overwhelming devotion. “Your Highness, will you wait for me to return?”

Xiao Qinlan said nothing, only gently stroking his cold armor.

The report of a great victory and the news of the commander’s death arrived at the same time, shaking the entire court. Xiao Qinlan turned, picked up the infant emperor, changed into the robes of the regent princess, and took the throne as regent, holding all power over the realm in her hands.

Six months later, Lu Chengyun, presumed dead and already cold in his grave, escaped death.

Standing atop the city gate, he stared at Xiao Qinlan in the imperial carriage, holding the infant emperor as the people of the realm bowed before her.

“Your Highness, I won this realm for you. Then what am I to you?”

● Forbidden master-disciple romance | restrained yearning | one true love

Lou Tingyue is the daughter of the lord of Xuantian Valley. Peerlessly beautiful, she becomes the disciple of that ancient phoenix.

Chu Qingbai is aloof and solitary, immortal and undying. He treats her as his disciple and has always been detached in his dealings with others.

In her previous life, Lou Tingyue’s second disciple developed an obsession with her and made a grand show of their engagement. But at the most perilous moment of the great battle, he turned and left with his new love.

The Heavenly Dao granted her another life, but even in this one, she couldn’t guard against everything.

The cold water of the icy pool chilled her to the bone, but couldn’t suppress the burning heat inside her.

Just as her consciousness began to blur, that serene figure suddenly appeared by the pool.

After several nights of recklessness, the medicine’s effects faded, and everything returned to normal. Master and disciple said nothing about it.

During their travels, there was the innocent Lu Wu, the mischievous troublemaker, the scheming young lord, the frail physician...

Lou Tingyue saved people on a whim. Over time, however, she became the moonlight that lingered in everyone’s heart, unwittingly leaving many deeply devoted admirers who could never hope to repay her.

The young lord of the Mu family came in person with a seemingly endless procession of betrothal gifts to ask for her hand. Chu Qingbai, her master, summoned phoenix fire and burned them all to ashes.

A master protecting their disciple is only natural. Lou Tingyue stood in front of Chu Qingbai, glancing left and right. “Master, that young lord from the Mu family... is really quite persistent.”

Chu Qingbai looked at her quietly for a long while, emphasizing every word. “Now that you are my disciple, I will handle everything. Worldly romantic entanglements are all distractions. Do not let outsiders disturb your cultivation.”
