Princess Duanyang Lu Zhao was the most notorious woman in all of Dayue, a wicked beauty blamed for bringing ruin to the nation.
She devoted herself to helping her younger brother ascend the throne, only to be branded a traitor, imprisoned in the imperial jail, and forced to drink poison.
The people who had truly cared for her were tortured to death. The powerful minister who had once wielded absolute influence became, in the eyes of the world, “just a woman.” The noble consort who had once pursued her relentlessly fell for someone else and even wanted Lu Zhao to become his mistress.
Reborn into a new life, Lu Zhao took revenge with her own hands, slaughtered her way through the court, and made her name resound across the land. Her power and might were beyond question!
She would seize the throne, the empire, and even the peerless Ninth Imperial Uncle.
King Heng Xiao Yu, whom everyone called cold, cruel, and bloodstained, smiled tenderly beside her ear. “My Zhaozhao was born to be Dayue’s Purple Star. How could I ever dare defy you?”
