"I want to go home."

"You probably can't go back."

"Why?"

"Because your home is very far from here."

"How far?"

"More than 1,200 years away."

Xu Qing looked at the young girl from the Tang Dynasty with a hint of sympathy on his face.

"Everything you once knew has already become history."

Family, friends, enemies—all lost to the silence of 1,200 years past.

A slice-of-life novel with a single heroine.

[Scheming] [Plot-Driven] [Single Female Lead] [No Cheat Abilities] [Fake Villain]

Zhao Du'an lived a cautious life as a civil servant, always walking on thin ice. But after transmigrating, he found himself as the pampered boy toy of the Empress—an arrogant, domineering villainous minister. Before he could even celebrate, he was sentenced to death for letting a national traitor escape.

With nowhere to turn, he planned to whisper sweet words to the Empress and beg for mercy—only to discover that his so-called "role" as a favored consort was a complete sham. To make matters worse, his notorious reputation had already sealed his fate:

The entire court was eager to impeach him.

Righteous warriors across the land sought to eliminate him.

Even military officers, monks, and Taoist sorcerers saw him as a disgrace.

Zhao Du’an was at his wit’s end. Since everyone wanted him dead, if he wanted to survive, he had only one choice—he couldn't play by the rules anymore. His path to redemption began with betraying his so-called "allies." From that moment on, the Great Yu Dynasty gained a new title for him—the Empress’s most loyal hound.

Years later, snow blanketed the imperial capital. On the city walls, Empress Xu Zhenguan let out a soft sigh. "We agreed to fake a relationship… so how did it become real?"

Traveling through the martial arts world, Li Mo is bound to the investment system and can see the root bones, destiny, and future of the investment object.

The better the other party's destiny, the richer the reward he will get.

Then he found that the cold girl who was his childhood sweetheart was actually the highest level of red destiny, and she would become the empress who dominated the nine heavens and ten earths in the future.

Recently, she seemed to be distressed about how to unlock the dead veins and show her talent in advance?

.....

My name is Ying Bing, one of the nine heavens, the female empress of the Phoenix Sky, suppressing the nine heavens and ten earths with an invincible posture.

I was reborn and bound to a peerless genius system. As long as I rank first among my peers, I can get rewards.

[Do you want to turn on the punishment mechanism? ]

[After turning it on, the reward will be increased, but you need to complete the punishment of the loser to the top after the ranking is announced. ]

Ying Bing: "I can't punish myself, right?"

.....

Many years later.

Ying Bing: "Can't you let me win once?"

Li Mo: "Call me husband first, I didn't hear you clearly before."
