A Princess’s Guide to Seizing the Throne

Also known as The Sky Screen Ruined My Life and Become Emperor or Die

I transmigrated into a book!

The good news: I became a princess!

The bad news: I'm the real princess in a story about a true and false princess, a mere background character whose only purpose is to give the heroine a noble identity. I'm the kind of character who's pure cannon fodder!

The good news: A sky screen appeared, exposing the heroine as the fake princess!

The bad news: The sky screen predicted that I would become an emperor for the ages.

Before I even made it to the imperial palace, the original owner of this body was already dead!

Lin Zhao: ??

What a trap!

Still, as I looked at the complicated, wary gazes all around me, and at this body of the original owner, so frail that it nearly died when faced with the plot's attempt to kill it, I felt my still-beating heart and finally smiled.

I'll take this heaven-sent fortune (and the blame that comes with it).

In a nutshell:

Since the sky screen has decided you're destined to be the future ruler,

you'd better become the real ruler.

Otherwise, there's only one road left: death.

Power is the best tonic for a woman.

A new serial to look forward to!

[Exposed as a Woman from the Start]

Also known as The Entire Court Is Trying to Guess Whether I'm a Man or a Woman and After They Found Out I'm a Woman, the Entire Court Started Pretending Not to Notice!

Ji Zheng transmigrated into a world like the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, cobbled together from several novels. She became the background character, the Son of Heaven of the Zhou dynasty. Though she was the ruler, she couldn't even collect all the tribute from the feudal lords, and her kingdom had been reduced to a few small counties around the capital.

But that wasn't the worst of it. The worst was that,

right from the start, the male protagonist of a mind-reading novel exposed her in front of the entire court: their Son of Heaven was a woman pretending to be a man. The members of the Ji clan below had already begun looking at her with suspicion. The moment they confirmed her sex, Ji Zheng would be dead.

Ji Zheng: Forget it. I'll just kill them all!

Theme: Even when trapped in dire circumstances, you must strive to control your own fate.
