The Tyrant Father Hears My Thoughts and Goes on a Killing Spree

Helian Sisi transmigrated into a book, becoming the little princess born to a concubine who had been banished to the cold palace. She was a poor little thing whose tyrant father tossed her into a bucket to drown her the moment she was born. Just before she was thrown into the water, she cursed furiously in her heart.

[No wonder everyone around you is a spy. No wonder your beloved Consort Yun will stab you to death one day.]

[You even kill your own daughter! Are you even human?]

Then,

at the very last moment, the tyrant pulled Helian Sisi out of the water.

The person held underwater in her place was Consort Yun.

Helian Sisi became the only princess raised in the tyrant's palace.

One day, the tyrant sentenced a civil official's entire family to death in court, ordering them all executed. As soon as he returned to his chambers, he heard his little daughter chattering away.

[If nothing unexpected happens, my dad's going to kill someone again today. Does he know who the people facing execution are? They're his own father's family! How could his own father have committed treason?]

The next day, the tyrant granted a general amnesty, pardoned the official's family, and restored them all to their positions.

[My dad isn't actually a bad person. The Grand Tutor deliberately led him astray. The art of ruling isn't about stopping killing with killing or answering violence with violence.]

The tyrant pondered for a moment, then sent a spy to steal a book on the art of ruling from the enemy kingdom's palace. He devoted himself to studying it every day.

The dynasty, which was supposed to fall within three years, grew more prosperous by the day. The male lead from the original story, who was supposed to overthrow the tyrant and take his place, turned out to be a former prince of the enemy kingdom, where he was restoring his dynasty.

The tyrant, meanwhile, became known among the people as an emperor for the ages.

Helian Sisi: [Oh no, I think I transmigrated into the wrong book.]
