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.

Yang Ning sighed in relief and secretly waved at Xing Bao with a smirk on her face when the guards dragged her out of the room.
She was glad that Xing Bao was punished as she had wanted but the punishment was not up to her liking.
It was too light for the crimes that she had committed until now.
Too bad that she was only punished to be flogged hundred times, otherwise the way she has treated Yang Ning and Xiaowei until now and has misused her power as the Head Maid, she deserves to be investigated officially by the state and be punished accordingly.
At least their punishment would not be as light as hers if Xing Bao were to be punished by the laws of the Empire. Because the laws for the servants misbehaving with their masters are way more ruthless than just being flogged 100 times.
