The Princess Is So Charming, She Has the Heir Bending Over Backward

After a coup, Jiang Mingxi lost both her parents and became the most awkwardly placed lucky-charm princess in the dynasty. To survive, she played the pig to eat the tiger, submitting to and currying favor with her enemies. In the eyes of others, Jiang Mingxi was timid and weak, enjoying a title and honors but lacking all dignity. She was a living symbol of the emperor’s supposed tolerance and benevolence. In truth, she was vicious and ambitious, a poisonous snake coiled within the palace, waiting to take someone’s life. One day, she would devour them all. But someone caught a glimpse of the true face she kept hidden from everyone, and used it as leverage to threaten her. He said, “I’ll conceal who you are and help you get revenge. How about we become partners in crime?” “…Fine.” She placed herself in his hands and let him control her. They truly did become partners in “crime.” A true hunter often appears in the guise of prey. It wasn’t until the hunter fired a hidden arrow that he realized he had been her pawn all along. From the very start, he had been walking into her trap. When he was no longer useful, she cast him aside without a second thought. She said, “Lu Yin, I’ve never loved you.” He smiled. “Jiang Mingxi, you’re the cruelest woman I’ve ever met.”
