I woke up as the Villainous Empress
"So, you're telling me you don't want to marry me? Didn’t you fight for this?" Crown Prince Zheng Liang was stunned. Yang Ning, the notorious schemer, wanted to call off their engagement? He thought he'd be relieved, but her sudden boldness had him questioning everything. "Your Highness, I don't want to be a sacrificial lamb, thank you very much," Yang Ning retorted with a fake smile, inwardly groaning. ‘Just break it off already!’ Fang Li, once a national treasure as an archery champion, finds her career and life on the brink of ruin after being embroiled in a scandal. But when she wakes up in a novel as Yang Ning—the villainess fated to become the most despised Empress and the fiancée of a Crown Prince who detests her—she’s determined not to follow the script! Armed with wit, humor, and a fierce will to survive, Yang Ning is set on rewriting her destiny. The twist? The Crown Prince, who’s supposed to loathe her, seems far too interested in her now. Can she escape her villainous destiny, or will she get tangled in royal drama and unexpected romance? ## Note: No extended misunderstandings or breakups—there will be some drama, but only to make the romance even better. This is a fun, romantic comedy full of witty banter! Cover: Original cover design by the author – kindly refrain from using without permission.

Not breaking the rule.
"Xiaowei, are you sure Lady Yu Ling is engaged in the kitchen? What if she comes back suddenly?" Yang Ning asked in a hushed voice when Xiaowei returned to the chamber after checking on Court Lady Yu Ling in the kitchen.
Xiaowei shook her head and said, " She won't. She is overseeing the kitchen staff while they are preparing your meal. From the looks of it, she will be in the kitchen for a while." She reported.
Yang Ning understood her words and nodded while she started calculating the possibility of her leaving the Yang Household without Yu Ling knowing.
Because if Yu Ling finds out that she is going to the Royal Palace, she will not leave her in peace. She had already told Yang Ning to not do anything and stay at the Yang Household already.
However, how can she do that? If she cannot help Zheng Liang in this situation, she should at least do what is in her hands.
