The Emperor's Beloved: The Astonishing Phoenix Consort

She was an undercover police officer with a background in espionage. She dared to enter the dragon's lair and the tiger's den, but one careless move cost her life. She was the most respected legitimate daughter of a general's household: arrogant, unruly, and spoiled. After a fall from a horse left her mentally impaired, she endured endless bullying and misery. Reborn, her gaze clear and cool, her brilliance boundless. She was no longer the same person. In this life, she would live only for herself! Someone wants to provoke her? They must have a death wish! Her fiancé wants to marry someone else? She'll call off the engagement! Everything taken from her, everything stolen from her, every wrong done to her: she'll reclaim it ten, a hundred, a thousand times over. All she wants is a quiet life, but they think she's easy prey? Fine. Then she won't leave a single root behind! The world is rife with conflict, its waters clouded and its winds rising. Only then does she realize she's trapped in schemes within schemes, plots within plots, with no way to escape the tangled turmoil of the times. Watch as her delicate hands first throw the world into chaos, then bring it to peace. Watch her slender figure rise to the pinnacle of power. When the dust of worldly life settles and prosperity passes by, who will join her in laughing through life and looking down upon all beneath heaven?
