The Sky Screen Reveals Her Clan’s Execution: The Illegitimate Daughter Turns the Marquis’s Residence Upside Down

In her past life, Shen Qingwu trusted wolves in sheep’s clothing. The entire Shen family was branded traitors, and their blood stained the execution ground.

Reborn overnight, she finds the sky screen suspended above the world, allowing all living beings to glimpse fragments of the future. As a concubine-born daughter of a marquis’s household, she faces treacherous currents within the inner quarters. Her stepmother and legitimate elder brother lay trap after trap, hoping to swallow the Shen family’s foundations. Shen Qingwu coolly plots her moves, using the sky screen’s predictions to evade their schemes and settle the household’s internal threats first. Prince Jing secretly plots rebellion, while deadly traps lie hidden along the northern frontier. Undeterred by public criticism, she sets out for the windswept borderlands. Others mock women as ignorant of military and political affairs, but she defies the odds, seeks out renowned teachers, and trains relentlessly, building her own intelligence network and loyal faction. Xiao Yanci commands an intelligence network in the north and forges an alliance with her, offering information and resources without overstepping or taking matters out of her hands. The two occasionally quarrel over misunderstandings, but they speak frankly when problems arise and resolve their differences promptly. There is some angst, but no prolonged suspicion or self-destructive infighting. The court is rife with intrigue, the northern tribes are poised to strike, and schemes come one after another. She never relies on anyone else’s protection, using her wits and abilities to plan each step as she swears to clear the Shen family’s name after a century of injustice. When the turmoil finally subsides, Shen Qingwu stands before the land she has fought for, her gaze unwavering: My fate has always been, and will always be, mine alone to control.
