"Regret leaving me alive? Good. You should have killed me when I was still naive." Schemes brew beneath the golden layers of the Imperial Palaces. Wei Mudan, the forgotten Third Princess, wields a sharp sword in one hand as she weaves her way through webs of deceit and betrayal. Red peonies bloom during war, a throne to ascend; with enemies at every turn, in the end, who will have the last laugh? This is the story of the Blood Peony Emperor, a girl who refused to take the title of Empress. Alone on the throne, her back proud and unwavering. Meanwhile, a certain someone stood behind her... "I'll be your Empress then," a deep voice whispered in her ear. Wei Mudan let out a long and troubled sigh. "You are an incorrigible idiot. How did I even fall for you?" ************************** Daily updates at 0000 GMT+8 Tags: female protagonist, politics, military strategy, war, romance this hasn't been dropped I'm just on my trip to Korea lol
