Bandit Queen

Jiang Yunshu, a poor village girl, married a man with an extraordinary background: he was the bandit chief of the greatest stronghold in the land. She thought a good life was finally within reach. But on her wedding night, a conspiracy and a bloody massacre ended in betrayal. Clad in a scarlet wedding dress, the timid, frail young woman leaped from a cliff in grief and fury. Three years later, she returned, stronger than ever. With poison in her arsenal, the world was hers to command. The martial world and the imperial court alike were at her mercy. If royal rule was unjust, then she would overthrow the dynasty.

Years later, Jiang Yunshu suddenly realized: would you believe it? She had tried so hard that she had become empress. Her arrogant ex-husband said, “It’s your coronation today. You can’t keep refusing to let me touch you now, can you?” Jiang Yunshu replied, “That wouldn’t be appropriate, would it? After all... you’re not the emperor.”
