Only as she lay dying did Jiang Muyan learn that her entire life had been a lie.
Her fiancé, who had once taken a blade for her, had faked his death just to escape her and spend every day with his childhood sweetheart, sharing a happy life together.
Kept in the dark, she became a pawn in the hands of the Hou family. She spent her whole life working herself to the bone, even entering the Prince Regent’s residence as a concubine, all to restore the declining Hou family to its former glory.
Reborn, she would make everyone in the Hou family who had drained her dry in her previous life suffer disgrace and ruin. She would become the richest merchant in the land, lounging atop mountains of gold and silver as she watched the world change.
After breaking free of the scumbag, the usually aloof Prince Regent, who kept his distance from women, took the initiative and approached her. “Ayan, you’re the only one fit to be the Princess Regent.”
Did the heroine marry a scumbag? The logic is flawed.
