Consort of a Thousand Faces

Reborn from the ashes of her former life, Nanzhao's eldest imperial princess, Ning Rulan, finds herself stripped of her status and relegated to the lowest ranks of society as a slave. In her past existence, she bore the weight of leadership, led armies, and faced betrayal. Her efforts to guide the empire were met with condemnation, culminating in the tragic death of her confidante amidst flames, a fatal arrow from her beloved sealing her demise. Now, resurrected as Su Xi-er, a palace maid in Beimin's imperial palace performing menial duties, she is driven by a fierce resolve: to avenge her past and rescue her younger brother. Navigating the treacherous currents of court politics, she confronts vindictive nobles who obstruct her path. Through perilous journeys across nations and the unraveling of long-held secrets, Su Xi-er forges a new destiny. The question remains: will she be defined by her tragic past, or can she seize an opportunity for happiness? Regardless of her name, Ning Rulan or Su Xi-er, this time, regret will not be her companion.
