The True Heiress's Healing Heart: Power Plays in the Capital

The heroine's mother, Shen Mingzhao, was the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Revenue's household. After marrying the Marquis of Jing'an, they lived in relative harmony. A year later, when she became pregnant, the marquis brought a concubine into the household. The concubine, Xiao Yurou, was a distant cousin of the marquis and had known him since childhood, so they shared some fond memories. Born to a concubine herself, Xiao Yurou was determined to win the marquis's favor and become the mistress of the household. Shen Mingzhao's delivery was difficult, leaving her frail and sickly. When the heroine was one year old, she was betrothed to the Third Prince. When she was five, Shen Mingzhao's family was framed by treacherous officials and exiled far away. After this sudden upheaval, her legitimate mother was consumed by sorrow, and the heroine's mother temporarily lost the support of her birth family. Then the concubine schemed against her, causing her to die young. The legitimate daughter was left without a mother to protect her. After the concubine used her schemes to become the mistress of the household, she framed the legitimate daughter as an ill omen and sent her to the countryside to fend for herself. There, the girl was bullied by everyone. During one such incident, she fell into a river and drowned. As she lay dying, she was filled with resentment. Just then, a highly educated modern woman was killed in a car accident and transmigrated into the legitimate daughter's body. She began living in the girl's place, seeking revenge on her stepmother and killing her enemies with her own hands. She helped clear the Minister of Revenue's household of its unjust accusations, allowing the whole family to return.
