The Grand Princess Wants Only to Become Emperor, Everyone Kneel

No Romance + A Powerful Female Lead Who Claims the Throne + A Satisfying Tale of Seizing Imperial Power + Ruthless and Merciless + Self-Serving

Di Qingyu is a woman bent on one thing alone: becoming emperor, wielding power, and standing above all others.

History records this princess who brought ruin to her nation as follows: "Her cunning bordered on the uncanny. Debauched and tyrannical, she threw the imperial court into chaos and presumed to claim the throne. She was an aberration and a disgrace to all women."

At eighteen, she was named Grand Princess of Xiling and granted the right to deliberate on affairs of state. At twenty-two, she helped the new emperor ascend the throne, was appointed Grand Princess Regent, and took command of both court and country.

Unfortunately, in the fifth year of her regency, a cheating bastard of a male lead with an Emperor System struck her dead with a bladed weapon that did not belong to this era-on the very day she launched her palace coup.

But death did not quite finish her off! Her ghost wandered the mortal world, forced to watch as the system-wielding man seized the Xiling dynasty, unified the realm, and ruled it alongside a transmigrated female physician!

One moment, Di Qingyu was cursing the heavens. The next, she was reborn!

She starts by hunting the male and female leads across the entire realm.

What she never expected was this.

The female lead: "You're a transmigrator too? All right, then. I'll cure you and help you seize the throne. Together, we'll usher in a golden age with special imperial examinations for women."

The male lead: "Di Qingyu, I won't fight you anymore. We can each take half the realm and leave each other alone."

Di Qingyu laughed. "Sorry, but I don't like sharing what I've set my sights on."

PS: No women competing over men; there are men competing over a woman. The protagonist's opponents aren't just the system-wielding male lead and the transmigrated woman, but the entire imperial court and the world beyond it. There is little in the way of romance. The protagonist is neither wholly good nor wholly evil. Whoever stands in her way dies.

No romantic pairing, though there is one-sided attraction. The protagonist is a native of this ancient world. Even after being reborn, she has no real cheat abilities and relies on her intelligence, palace intrigue, and political maneuvering.
