Serious version: One general's success is built on ten thousand fallen bones. What about an emperor? And what if that emperor is a woman?
Wu Xianshu despises this world, so she will change it, even if she has to kill the emperor, her father, her husband, her teacher, her friends, or her own child.
Plot version: When my husband, the Prince of Cheng, strangled me to death, I was his princess, and we had always treated each other with distant courtesy. Only then did I unexpectedly learn from my younger stepsister the truth about my birth mother's tragic death. It turned out I had spent my whole life treating the murderer as my mother. When I opened my eyes again, I was three years old, and my mother had not yet been killed. I was so excited to get close to the mother who had never appeared in my memories, but then...
“What's with all the commotion? Have you no manners? Guards, take the young lady to the Buddhist hall to sort beans!”
This isn't how I imagined it at all?!
Note: The heroine grows stronger gradually, and her ambition is nurtured little by little.
The heroine has three men: a dangerously obsessive childhood friend, a devious confidant, and a gentlemanly senior brother.
