[The true and fake heiresses are both reborn + A change of marriage + Palace and household intrigue + Sweet romance + Revenge and face-slapping]
In her previous life, Shen Xiwei was forced into a humiliating marriage with a poor scholar. After helping her husband rise to the rank of a first-grade official, she was murdered by the true heiress, Shen Pingting, and her husband.
“Shen Xiwei, you stole my parents and my husband. Now that we've been given another life, you should suffer every hardship I went through in my last one!”
After their marriages are switched again, Shen Xiwei enters the palace and becomes empress to a tyrant with only half a month left to live, just as his kingdom is about to fall.
She faces her wedding night with composure. With enemy forces at the gates, she joins forces with the powerful official Xiao Yu, kills the tyrant to rally the troops, and drives back the enemy with her wits, securing her position on the empress's throne.
But Shen Pingting storms into the palace and berates her for being the fake heiress, claiming the throne should have been hers!
Xiao Yu, who was supposed to ascend the throne himself, presents her with the imperial jade seal in both hands. “Weiwei, do you like the kingdom I conquered for you?”
Shen Xiwei kicks him aside. “Nonsense. I conquered this kingdom myself.”
