In her previous life, she was the apple of her family’s eye, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Revenue’s household. She planned to marry the top scholar of the imperial examinations, and always put her husband’s family first. But her husband and her own younger sister cruelly betrayed her. In this life, she returns as a bloodthirsty demon, with medicine, martial arts, and strategy all at her fingertips. She crushes the scum and shines brilliantly. But this young lady has long since sworn off love, so why is there an idiot following her around?
Highlight One: Yun Qianhe glared viciously at Yun Qianle, gritting her teeth as she said, “Yun Qianle, we had no feud. Why did you have to hurt me like this?”
“No feud?” Yun Qianle murmured those four words. “How could we have no feud? I’m the legitimate daughter, and you’re the concubine-born daughter. Aren’t legitimate and illegitimate daughters natural enemies? Besides, have you forgotten all the things you did before, little sister? You may have forgotten, but your big sister remembers. Tell me, do we have a feud or not?” Thinking of everything that happened in my past life, if I don’t make you, Yun Qianhe, wish you were dead, I’ll have done myself wrong in both my lives.
Highlight Two: Third Prince: “Qianle, I love you so much. Why can’t you see it?”
Yun Qianle: “How could I not see you? I’m not blind.”
“Then why...”
“I’m sorry, I already like someone else.”
“Is he better than me?”
“He’s more handsome, younger, better at martial arts, and richer than you. More importantly, even if every other man in the world died, I still wouldn’t choose you.”
Highlight Three: The battlefield rang with cries of slaughter. Dressed in armor, Yun Qianle stood tall and spirited, smiling at the man opposite her.
“Qianle, wouldn’t it be better to come back with me and be crown princess? You’d have endless riches and glory. Why suffer alongside Huangfu Jun?”
“I’m his empress. Being empress is much more satisfying than being crown princess... Besides, your king is still alive. It’ll be a long time before the crown prince takes the throne. What if you never become emperor? Wouldn’t I be getting the short end of the stick?” Yun Qianle replied leisurely.
“You...”
“Your Highness, this is bad! The Emperor of Tiansheng is attacking the city!” A soldier came stumbling over.
“What?”
The Crown Prince of Xihua could no longer spare a thought for Yun Qianle. He hurried up to the city wall, where he saw the soldiers of Tiansheng massed below, their ranks stretching as far as the eye could see. At their head was the man who struck fear into every nation: Huangfu Jun.
Huangfu Jun had clearly seen him too. His eyes narrowed, a dangerous glint flashing in them. How dare he try to steal my empress? He’s asking for death!
Highlight Four: “Le’er, all my things are with you. You can’t abandon me, and you can’t have another man in your heart. Not even that little brat!” The childish man clung desperately to Yun Qianle.
“...” Yun Qianle rubbed her forehead. Where had he learned to be so childish? Had he left his brain at home? “Then I’ll give your things back to you and leave.”
“No! I’m one of those things too. If you leave, you have to take me with you!” The man wrapped his arms around her leg.
