Reborn as a concubine-born daughter who was murdered, Shen Qingxian has her hands full.
Her legitimate elder sister mocks her as a fool, so she hits back with a package of public humiliation. Her stepmother tries to keep her down, but she easily seizes control of the family's finances.
By the time they are kneeling and begging for mercy, Shen Qingxian has already left the household. She has become a favored guest of a prince and a master strategist in the imperial court.
Using modern legal thinking, she sets new rules in this ancient world where people are devoured alive.
Her former enemies are all prisoners, and the entire game of power is in her hands.
She will show everyone: the pinnacle of a comeback is becoming the one who controls the game.
