The Phoenix Returns to Tang

An orphan girl raised by a marquis’s household as a mere pawn was sacrificed in a power struggle in her previous life and died full of resentment. Reborn at thirteen, she goes from pawn to player, gradually overturns the entire marquis’s household, stirs up turmoil at court, and ultimately discovers her true origins and where she belongs. This is not just a simple, satisfying revenge story. It is a story about establishing one’s own identity: a girl who was told from childhood who she was comes back to life asking, “Who am I, really?” In the end, she decides for herself who she will become.
