[Rebirth + strong female lead + powerful female supporting characters + national vendettas and family feuds + secret identities for everyone]
Xu Shuying, the third young lady of the Marquis of Zhen's household, was peerlessly talented and beautiful, and famous throughout the capital. She entered the palace as a girl, fell in love at first sight with the top scholar Xu Rong at the Qionglin Banquet, and married far away to Changzhou. There began a lifetime of pain and torment.
Xu Rong, so talented and gentle as jade, was in truth a ruthless, hypocritical scoundrel. He indulged his concubines, harmed his young son, and imprisoned Xu Shuying, while saddling the marquis's household with the crime of treason and rebellion, all to pave his own road to success.
Reborn, Xu Shuying swore to herself: If anyone dares target the marquis's household this time, she will seize power and destroy every overconfident, pitiful, ridiculous dreamer who dares to covet it.
In this new life, she unlocks a new identity and lives only by her own heart.
