My Lord, the Heir, Could Never Be a Woman

Yun Xiao, heir to the Prince of Yan, was born bold and free-spirited, a shameless flirt who did whatever she pleased. Every few days, the Prince of Yan would chase her up trees and over walls with a ruler in hand. Everyone in the capital knew that much. What the outside world didn’t know was that the Prince of Yan had been swinging that ruler for over a decade, but had never once actually brought it down on her. And no one knew that the irreverent little troublemaker was, in truth, a remarkably gifted young woman. * The first time Yun Xiao climbed a wall, when she was five, she ended up in the neighboring Prince of Zhenbei’s residence. For the next ten-plus years, she treated that wall like her own front doorstep. When Pei Yi, the young heir to the Prince of Zhenbei, was sent to the capital as a hostage, all alone and so pitiful, she would bring him big bags of food and supplies whenever she had the chance. When the Imperial Academy’s instructors deliberately gave Pei Yi the cold shoulder and refused to teach him properly, she used the excuse of having him help with her homework to climb over the wall every day and tutor him. Just as the little boy had finally grown into an otherworldly gentleman, the world fell into chaos. War erupted everywhere, and the people were in open revolt. The nobles feasted on wine and meat, while the poor froze to death by the roadside. The useless emperor turned a blind eye to it all, spending his days on schemes and political maneuvering. Now he wanted to destroy her entire family and the young Prince of Zhenbei she had raised with such effort. Yun Xiao: “???” The world belongs to our generation; we’ll claim the throne with a laugh. This emperor is no good. He needs replacing. 【Female Emperor, Female Emperor, Female Emperor】
