[Palace Intrigue and Rising Through the Ranks] [Favored Exclusively in the Later Story] [White Moonlight Foil] [Fake Substitute] [Taming the Dog]
Shangguan Suxin, a daughter born to a concubine, was married off in place of her legitimate younger sister and became one of the last consorts chosen to enter the palace for the dying old emperor.
Three years later, the old emperor died. She was forced to drink poison and buried with him, dying with hatred in her heart.
Heaven took pity on her. A year later, she returned to life in another body, becoming Qiao Hong'er, a palace maid guarding the imperial tombs.
The original owner had been ostracized by other palace maids, harassed by the prince in charge of the tombs, and jilted by her childhood sweetheart. In despair, she had taken her own life.
Given a new life, Shangguan Suxin was determined to live well for both of them!
She would start by climbing into the new emperor's bed...
Those who bullied her, she would kill. Those who harassed her, she would ruin. Those who broke off their engagement, she would make regret it.
When she entered the palace again, her legitimate younger sister had also passed the selection under Shangguan Suxin's name. She couldn't have been happier!
This time, she would seize the empress's throne, bear a prince, and personally force her younger sister to drink the poison meant for burial with the emperor!
She schemed and plotted, seeking nothing but favor and power.
How did the tyrant who kept insisting he only saw her as a substitute end up giving her his whole heart?
Xiao Jinghong held her tightly in his arms.
He nipped her earlobe. "I've always loved you, and only you."
Queen Mother Liangliang: Ouch, the Ai family is so uncomfortable that they even take sleeping pills... King Xiao Qiao: Liangliang, what you are taking are Jianweixiaoshi tablets. There's nothing wrong with it, just a little less meat.
