In history, Xiao Qingwan entered the Shun'an Prince's Mansion as a dancer and, by a twist of fate, fell in love with the deposed emperor, who had experienced similar hardships.

She was obsessive to the point of madness. In order to please the deposed emperor, she did not hesitate to join forces with him to kill her own sister, Xiao Baishu.

After the deposed emperor was restored to the throne, she was overjoyed, thinking that she would follow him into the palace and be made a concubine. However, the deposed emperor established a new empress, and the new empress was even given to her by imperial decree.

"The Xiao family plotted treason and should have their entire clan executed. However, considering that Xiao's daughter, Qingwan, has served His Majesty with merit, she is hereby granted a cup of poisoned wine and permitted to commit suicide."

The new empress wants to kill her!

Xiao Qingwan found it hard to believe.

She had no idea that her poisoning was orchestrated by the deposed emperor, nor did she know that he had never reciprocated her feelings and only intended to exploit her!

Xiao Qingwan rebelled in anger and tried to see the deposed emperor, but was held down by several eunuchs who came to deliver the imperial decree. They forced her to drink poisoned wine, and she died in agony.

This is the normal course of history, but in Tong Sulai's mission world, Xiao Qingwan, who was poisoned to death by being forced to drink poison, was reborn fifteen years ago with a heart full of hatred.

Nothing had happened yet; she was only ten years old.

She can go back in time and start over!

After realizing her predicament, Xiao Qingwan was overjoyed.

Recalling her past life, she stubbornly believed that she was murdered because the Xiao family had plotted a rebellion.

If the young emperor had known about Xiao Lingchen's ambition earlier and taken precautions, would he not have been dethroned and become a deposed emperor?

Once she had an idea, Xiao Qingwan acted swiftly. Taking advantage of her younger sister Bai Shu's young age, she brainwashed and bewitched her to work for her, and also won over and deceived her stepbrother Xiao Lingchen, making her the respected young lady of the Xiao family.

Now, she is trying to get in touch with the young emperor, ready to betray the Xiao family's secrets at any time and help the deposed emperor bring down the Xiao family!

"Is Xiao Qingwan sick? The Xiao family raised and pampered her, yet she has the heart to betray her own family? She joined the deposed emperor, does she think she can become empress with this merit? I'm afraid that once the Xiao family falls, she will be taken to the execution ground and executed along with the Xiao clan."

Tong Su couldn't understand Xiao Qingwan's line of thinking at all; as the saying goes, there's always a reason why someone is pitiful.

It seems pitiful that Xiao Qingwan was poisoned to death, but considering the people she ruthlessly killed, she can hardly be considered an innocent person.

[Yes, by the time our Time Management Bureau realized something was wrong, she had already been reborn for six years. If the Xiao family hadn't only recently moved back to the capital, who knows how much trouble she would have caused! Miss, we absolutely cannot let Xiao Qingwan get her way; it will seriously affect the course of history!]

The number 666 flickered nervously with green light, trembling as it floated in the air.

The Kang Dynasty had lasted for five hundred years, and had long lost its former glory of having all nations pay tribute to it.

Deep-seated problems and ills brought down this once glorious dynasty, while natural disasters and man-made calamities left it on the verge of collapse.

The world is now in a dark age, with heavy taxes levied constantly. Eunuchs collude in the palace, relatives of the emperor sell official positions in the court, and barbarian tribes are eyeing the borders with covetous intent. Beset by internal and external troubles, the people are truly living in misery.

In the imperial court, the only one who could fight to the death with the eunuchs and imperial relatives on his own was a young man who was both learned and skilled in martial arts, ruthless and cunning.
