Reborn as the Demon Consort: The Poisonous Empress Who Doomed a Kingdom

In her previous life, she was branded a demon consort who brought ruin to the nation. For the man she loved, she personally poisoned the new emperor to death. Then an imperial edict made her see everyone for who they truly were: the man she loved had used her, while the man who loved her was sent to his death by her own hand. All the promises she had once believed were now nothing but laughable lies... Reborn, she has seen the coldness of her scumbag father, the malice of her stepmother, and the vicious schemes of her stepsister. How can she just let it go? She will take back everything they took from her, and destroy everything they want. With a scheming mother and daughter blocking her path, and a scumbag man admitting his mistakes only to lay another trap, this time she will make sure they all pay! He was the heir to a financial empire, yet false friendship and love led him in circles until he died in a room where he had caught his lover cheating. After transmigrating, and seeing through it all, he starts playing the fool while keeping his claws hidden. What brotherly love? If you want the throne, I’ll gladly play along. What, you say you love me? You women only love my status. Scene One: “What are you going to do?” He lay sprawled on the floor. She held a dagger in one hand while slipping the other inside his undergarment. “What do you think, Your Highness?” She slowly pulled open his lapels, raised her hand, and plunged the dagger down... Scene Two: “Aren’t you afraid of retribution?” She lounged lazily on the couch, slowly painting her nails. Looking at the woman below, who was in a sorry state, she smiled wickedly. “Retribution? Here, I am retribution!” Scene Three: “Empress, those old men said today that you’re disrupting the court and beguiling your ruler. What do you think I should do?” He drew her soft waist into his arms, breathed in her fragrance, and asked, “They all say you’re a vicious empress who brings ruin to the nation, and want me to issue an edict ordering your execution.” “Then, Your Majesty, what do you plan to do? You know I’m cruel.” She poked his chest with a finger. “Are you really going to have me executed?” “What do you think, Empress?” “Kill those disobedient old men?” “I’ll do whatever the Empress says.”
