The Ailing Heir: She Wields the Power to Rule the Court by Crushing Hearts

Who could have guessed that the frail young heir at court, who could barely walk three steps without gasping twice and coughed up blood while fighting for power, was actually a breathtakingly beautiful woman beneath the bed curtains?

In her previous life, she shed blood and tears for a faithless emperor, only to have her entire family executed.

Reborn, she dons men’s clothes and enters the court in her brother’s name. With an immortal manor space at her command, she kills both body and spirit, carefully advancing at every turn.

Everyone thinks she’s a useless pawn who won’t live long. Only the cold-faced prince, who sees through everything, corners her against a wall and says in a husky voice, “I’ll keep your secret. And I’ll help you claim this kingdom!”
