Honored for My Service, Shamed Without Consummation: I Remarry the Emperor's Uncle and Seize the Realm

The alluring, sharp-witted general’s daughter versus the aloof, ascetic young imperial uncle

Yan Yunge ventures into enemy territory to steal a defense map and avenge her father and brothers, who died on the battlefield. She returns in triumph, having earned great merit.

But her grandfather accuses her of bringing shame on the family, her adopted cousin thinks she is in the way, the crown prince cares about her chastity, and her aunt, the empress, shows no regard for their family bond.

Everyone despises her, while a concubine-born girl is held in the highest esteem.

That girl enjoys the credit for Yan Yunge’s achievements, steals the few family members she has left and her betrothal, and even tries to take her life.

Reborn into a new life.

Drugged with a muscle-relaxing powder and pear-scented incense, Yan Yunge doesn’t wait to be carried off by assassins.

Instead, she gets out of the carriage and changes direction.

She will no longer follow the path they laid out for her. She will carve out her own!

In this life, she won’t just survive. She’ll make them all pay, and seize the crown prince’s throne!

She barges into the imperial mausoleum and throws herself into the arms of her Buddha-like, aloof young imperial uncle.

The man remains unmoved, his mind clear. “Do you know what you’re doing?”

Yan Yunge certainly does. This is her choice!

She softens her voice and pleads, “Lang, you care for all living beings. Will you save a helpless woman like me?”

A tolerant sigh sounds by her ear.

…

Early the next morning, the young imperial uncle stares at the empty bed, his face as dark as water.

“Return to the capital! Find her.”
