A Life of Ever-Growing Splendor

She has a father who shows her no affection and a stepmother who cares nothing for her. Though she seems like an easy target, this legitimate daughter of the Minister's household is clever and perceptive, skilled at feigning weakness and play the pig to eat the tiger. He is the illustrious Sixth Prince of Daliang, handsome and commanding, with a powerful army at his disposal. He wants only to protect himself, yet the emperor suspects him and the imperial harem fears him. An arranged marriage changes their fates forever. When the seemingly meek and helpless daughter of the Minister's household reveals her true nature, she makes sure to repay every slight. Those who once bullied her can only meekly let her toy with them. When the Sixth Prince, who wants only to protect himself, meets a woman he truly wants to protect, he has no choice but to tear off his disguise and stir up the tides of court politics. Since ancient times, the royal family has known little affection, and political upheaval has always come with bloodshed. See how the two of them overcome one challenge after another and rise to the pinnacle of power. (A scheming prince dotes on his domineering wife! Everyone thinks she's just a pawn in his hand, but they don't know the truth: when she torments people, he watches; when she kills, he cheers her on; when she attracts admirers, he tears down their nests; when she draws suitors, he snaps off their branches. Husband and wife are perfectly in sync, and couldn't be happier!)
