[Rebirth and revenge + slap in the face and torture + cool plot and strategy + two powerful people favoring each other + online IQ]
In her previous life, Xue Li was the number one "evil girl" in the capital. She was infatuated with the prince but was exploited to the point of death. Her entire family was executed and her corpse was exposed in the wilderness.
After being reborn, she put away her fangs and acted like a straw bag, but secretly worked every step of the way, killing spies, building an intelligence network, grabbing business, and winning people's hearts.
Is the prince hypocritical? Then destroy his East Palace.
White Lotus plot? Then tear off her mask.
Framed by the civil service group? Then uproot it.
Everyone thought she was still the brainless and arrogant legitimate daughter of the prince, until she disguised herself as a man and rode on the battlefield, took charge of the trade routes, made the country extremely wealthy, and single-handedly supported the new emperor. Only then did they realize that this "evil woman" had already gained power.
And the crazy prince who was rumored to kill without batting an eye and only had red eyes at her was silently wiping his sword: "Madam, who do you want to kill next? My husband will hand you the sword."
