Xie Yu married the heir to a marquis’s title due to an “accident.” For three years, she followed the rules and the conventions of society, respected her husband, honored her mother-in-law, and treated her stepsons and stepdaughters kindly.
Though she was neglected and never shared a bed with her husband, she dutifully fulfilled her role as mistress of the household despite having no children after three years of marriage.
Who could have guessed that a single medicinal stone would leave her starved to death!
In this life, she discovered that it had all been... a scheme!
A highborn young lady was betrothed to Prince Qi, yet she met secretly with the heir? Then the emperor personally arranged her marriage?
Every scheme led to another. Everyone profited at her expense, while she alone was kept in the dark!
They’d gone too far. This time, she’d make them all pay!
They wanted to use her to raise the Marquis’s household to prominence? Not a chance. She’d board up every door and window!
They wanted to tear the Xie clan apart? She’d turn the tables and wait for two tigers to fight so she could reap the rewards!
What?
I’ve only just divorced, and His Majesty has already arranged another marriage for me. He wants me dead too?
I’m done pretending. I just want to live in peace. Don’t make me rebel!
There is no ending, please give the author a big boost
