[Palace and household intrigue + rebirth and revenge + face-slapping, villain-crushing satisfaction]
In her past life, Shen Zhimiao only realized the truth as she lay dying: the crown prince she had helped rise to power loved her elder half-sister. To make Shen Zhimiao give up her place, the two of them poisoned her.
Fortunately, Heaven took pity on her, and she was reborn at eight years old, before she had ever met Chi Xu. In her past life, Chi Xu had used his schemes to climb all the way to the position of crown prince. When they married, he used the difference in their status as an excuse to demote her from wife to concubine, then promised to treat her well. But when she became pregnant, Chi Xu brought her elder half-sister into their home.
To make room for the child in her sister’s belly, they forced Shen Zhimiao to drink poison. She miscarried and died in agony.
In this life, Shen Zhimiao still can’t avoid meeting the second prince, Chi Xu, at the age of eight. So she takes on her half-sister and makes life miserable for the scumbag.
“Let’s see if you can claim that throne without my help this time.” Shen Zhimiao teases the golden canary in its cage, the smile in her eyes growing deeper.
