The Brocade Phoenix's Strategy: The Legitimate Daughter Returns

In her previous life, Shen Yunshu was the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Jing’an’s household. After her mother died young and her aunt schemed against her, she endured endless mistreatment in her uncle’s home. When she was brought back to the capital, she was forced to marry the powerless Sixth Prince in place of her half-sister. She poured her talents into helping him ascend the throne, only to see her son murdered, her younger brother cast out, and herself beaten to death after the tendons in her hands and feet were severed! Her half-sister stepped over her corpse to become empress, while her aunt was made the principal wife, usurping her rightful place.

Reborn from the ashes, Shen Yunshu returns with a seething hatred. This time, she will tear away her enemies’ masks of hypocrisy with her own hands!

Before returning to the capital, she makes her cruel uncle and aunt pay dearly. Her ruthless schemes catch the eye of Xiao Heng, the heir to Prince An, who is traveling incognito.

The journey back to the capital is fraught with danger at every turn, but she uses her extraordinary intelligence to overcome each crisis and reveal her brilliance.

Once inside the marquis’s residence, she must contend with her aunt Liu’s control of the household, her half-sister Shen Qingyao’s doting admirers, her despised younger brother Shen Yunyi, who has been spoiled rotten, and a host of aunts and half-sisters with their own agendas. She lies low and plots carefully, one step at a time.

She will use the truth to awaken her brother from the lies clouding his mind. Together, they will unleash a storm of revenge within the treacherous inner household of the marquis’s residence!
