Shen Xiyue, the illegitimate daughter of a minor official, saw her parents murdered overnight because of a mysterious list.
Fearing the other side's overwhelming power, her stepmother chose to endure the insult and flee to their hometown. For money, she secretly sold Shen Xiyue as a concubine to the county magistrate.
At a moment of crisis, Shen Xiyue made a clever escape from home and set off alone for the capital. She assumed a new identity, infiltrated her family's enemy's residence, and began investigating the truth behind her parents' murder.
She took on a madwoman, evaded a lecher's harassment, rescued a little girl who was pretending to be foolish, and carried a deadly poison within her…
After enduring countless dangers and schemes, and narrowly escaping death time and again, she joined forces with the male lead, Mu Yunyi, the man who loved her deeply. Together they brought down the Marquis of Pingxi's household, avenged her parents, eliminated a grave threat to the court, helped the emperor reclaim power from the empress dowager, and secured the crown prince's position.
The concubine is determined to avenge her family! Take the risk alone and go deep into the enemy's house! Obtain incriminating evidence! Restore the innocence of a family of wronged souls! Although this was extremely unrealistic in ancient times! But the concubine who made up the story really has great ambitions!
The story is quite interesting, but I don't know why the reading rate is so low. Big cheers for the author
The story of the whole book is compact, full of ups and downs, and has a perfect ending. It is worth watching.
Well written and worth reading!
I like the heroine's cleverness and bravery. She didn't write about breaking off the engagement or making her mother regret it.
