As the sole heir to the Ji Group, Ji Fenghua was murdered one day. When she opened her eyes again, she had become the daughter of a farming family. Her father was dead, her mother was frail, and her so-called family had sold her to the Li family for five taels of silver to become a stepmother.
She had been the only daughter of the Ji Group, adored by countless people and blessed with extraordinary talent.
Even this predicament couldn’t defeat her. If her relatives thought they could seize her family’s land, they were dreaming.
She could raise the children and find ways to make money at every turn. Even her comatose husband could be nursed back to health.
But when he awoke, he turned out to be anything but weak. A born general with a brilliant strategic mind, he was nonetheless willing to play the simple-minded husband in front of her.
She hadn’t wanted to concern herself with him, but who could have guessed that her man would charge through every battle and rise all the way to the pinnacle of power?
“Don’t blame me, my lady. I simply thought you’d make a better Princess of the North.”
She’d have to be crazy to believe him.
