Princess Zhaohua of Great Zhao, Baili Jun—the most exalted of them all—died on her wedding night.
In her past life, she was the noble Princess Zhaohua, yet was slain by those closest to her. Her beloved consort carved open her chest with his own hands. Her father, the emperor, watched coldly, and her dear younger sister smiled as she offered her heart to the Crown Prince.
When Baili Jun awoke reborn, she touched the scar over her heart and laughed.
“In my last life, I gave you my heart and soul. In this life, I’ll take yours in payment.”
On the first day, she burned the Prince Consort’s mansion, pinned the faithless man to the wedding bed, carved out his heart, and roasted him alive.
The second day, she carried the Crown Prince’s heart into court, smiling as she asked the ministers: “Tell me, have I gone mad?”
The third day, she destroyed the Imperial Astronomers’ Bureau, forcing those fortune‑tellers to watch “destiny” collapse before their eyes.
The fourth day, she walked step by step toward the emperor, sword dripping blood: “Father… this empire needs a new ruler.”
At the court, she was the regent princess with a smile hiding daggers. Beyond the court, she was the blood‑soaked Shura who made all tremble.
When her enemies knelt and begged for mercy, she only wiped her blood‑stained dagger slowly: “Don’t be afraid. My heart was carved out long ago; now it’s your turn.”
“Since you all call me Shura…”
“Then let this mortal world become my hell!”
