I'll Crown My Former Rival Emperor

Lilliette was once a brilliant emperor whose reign ended in betrayal. Poisoned by her own husband and forced to endure years of helpless suffering, she dies with countless regrets. Reborn as a slave named Irie, she unexpectedly reunites with Slarhan—the man who had once been her fiercest political rival. Instead of opposing him, she uses her knowledge of the future and exceptional talent to support his rise to the throne. Along the way, old rivalries evolve into trust, and the two gradually develop feelings for one another while navigating court conspiracies, revenge, and the struggle to change history.
