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.

After the soldiers left with the snacks, emptying the training area, Gu Lan looked at Yang Ning hesitantly and said, "Your Highness, I don't think it is appropriate for you to come here. This area is prohibited for women, and if His Highness finds out about it—"
Before he could complete his words, Yang Ning anticipated what he was saying and interrupted him, saying, "Guard Gu Lan, you don't need to worry about it. After all, I am not just any woman, but the Crown Princess, and I came here to look around the training ground and inspect if everything is going on smoothly."
"As the Crown Princess responsible for the internal management of the palace, can I not come here to ensure everything is running smoothly, including the efficiency of the kitchen personnel and the cleaning staff of this place? While the training grounds might not be directly under my jurisdiction, the broader aspects of managing this place certainly fall within my authority."
