In her previous life, Su Jinxiu was the legitimate daughter of the imperial merchant Su family. But after trusting her half-sister and her husband, she lost the family business, her child was killed, and she herself died in agony after drinking a cup of poison. When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the age of sixteen, the year her fate changed.
This time, she is sharp-eyed and clear-minded. She vows to protect her family, reclaim everything, and make those who betrayed her pay. Drawing on memories of her past life, she cleverly uses business tactics and her understanding of human nature to maneuver through the undercurrents and turmoil of the imperial capital. On her road to revenge, she encounters Yuwen Yuan, the regent who once held power over the court but met a tragic end in her previous life. As the two move from testing each other to joining forces, she discovers the pain and secrets hidden behind the cold-faced prince.
See how Su Jinxiu:
Outwits her scheming half-sister and ambitious husband, foils their plots, and makes them suffer the consequences of their own actions;
Uses modern business thinking to rebuild the Su family, become the foremost imperial merchant, and even influence the economy of the realm;
Gets to know the equally guarded regent Yuwen Yuan, embarking on a battle of wits in love between equals as they face the shifting tides of court politics together.
This is a deeply satisfying tale of revenge, a heartwarming story of redemption, and a dazzling account of a woman awakening to herself and growing stronger. She will not only overturn the empire, but also build a splendid world of her own.
