After a Maid Stole My Identity as a Princess, I Was Reborn and Struck First to Kill Her

When my maid and I accompanied my father, the emperor, on a secret inspection tour, we were ambushed by the Xiongnu.

To protect my father, I was captured. I endured endless humiliation and clung to life until I finally made it back home, thinking I had returned to a warm and loving family.

My maid had taken my identity as the eldest princess, swaggering around and enjoying a close father-daughter bond with the emperor. He believed my innocence had been destroyed and that I had brought shame upon the royal family, so he ordered me to take my own life.

Reborn at fifteen, I watched coldly as the maid in her finery cowered behind me. I smiled faintly and said:

"Yulan, you falsely claimed to be acting on my orders and caused the Duke of Zhenguo's daughter to fall into the water. Beat her to death!"
