[Transmigration, serious drama, ensemble cast of women]
The stiff, sharp-tongued great general vs. the proud, fiery princess
/
When Li Qingxi woke up, she discovered that she had transmigrated. She had become the Third Princess, Li Xiangjun, who was doted on by the emperor but died young from illness because she had been so carefully sheltered that her immunity was poor.
She thought that after a few years of miserable college life, she could finally enjoy the luxurious life of an ancient princess and let loose.
But after taking a look at the court, she was horrified to realize:
This was a kingdom on the verge of collapse, with a foolish and incompetent emperor, scheming officials, and people suffering beyond measure!
Heavens, you want me dead...
Li Qingxi looked up at the sky in anguish, wanting to ask why fate was so unfair. But the very next moment, she met a handsome face full of heroic spirit.
She was Chu Suying.
The history books said she had practiced martial arts from the age of seven and led troops into battle at twelve. She was a god of war who had saved her country from ruin countless times.
But because her tongue was too sharp, she had offended many officials early on. In the end, she was killed after treacherous ministers whispered in the emperor's ear.
So, to protect her own life, Li Qingxi decided to latch onto this powerful ally.
She would help Chu Suying get rid of the treacherous officials she'd offended and teach her the art of speaking...
After she had paved the way for Chu Suying, Li Qingxi happily wanted to play her a tune on the pipa to celebrate. Chu Suying raised an eyebrow and snorted:
"Such frivolous music. You'd be better off running a few more laps at the drill grounds."
For a moment, Li Qingxi really wanted to smash the pipa in her hands over Chu Suying's head.

"Only now did she understand: it wasn't any one treacherous villain who killed Chu Suying, but this unjust era..."
