After Being Hypnotized, the Villainous Princess Seems to Have Dropped Her Act

My name is Ye Changning. Three months ago, I transmigrated into a game and became a direct descendant of the General's Residence. I thought I could finally stop being treated like a workhorse, only to discover I'd become cannon fodder.

To stay alive, I had no choice but to cut ties with the General's Residence, flee the capital for Jiangnan, and hide away from the world.

I thought I could lie low until the ending, but one day, the game's great villain, the dynasty's Fourth Princess Li Xianxue, suddenly showed up with her troops and stormed into my courtyard, demanding to be alone with me.

Huh? That never happened in the game!

Outnumbered, I had no choice but to obey and lead her into the study.

What I never expected was that the dignified princess recruited people by hypnotizing them!

She launched her hypnosis without a moment's delay, but triggered my transmigrator's passive ability, [Turn Your Own Tactics Against You], and her spell bounced right back at her.

What should I do after hypnotizing the villainous princess with a terrible personality?

What else? Keep up the act!

To stay alive, I had to pretend I was hypnotized and serve this ill-tempered woman like a workhorse.

Years later, the princess of old finally ascended the throne as empress. With the outcome settled, I thought I could at last stay out of the fray, but she suddenly decided to take me as her imperial consort!

Getting me to help her ascend the throne wasn't enough. Now she wants to claim my body too?!

Enough is enough!

"Your Majesty, I'll be frank. You don't truly care for me. You're under a hypnotic spell."

"A hypnotic spell? Oh, that spell. I broke it ages ago."

"Huh? So you were pretending all along?"

"Ye Changning, I have always been completely honest with you!"
