The Liu family is fabulously wealthy, but has only one daughter. She marries into a marquis’s household, becoming its mistress, and gives birth to Su Jinghe.
But when Su Jinghe is six, a carefully plotted conspiracy suddenly descends upon her. The marquis and Lady Kang join forces to accuse her of cutting flesh from the calf of her second younger sister, Su Jingxi. Overnight, the adored young heiress becomes a “wicked calamity” despised by everyone and is sent away to a family temple to repent.
Then her mother, Lady Liu, takes her own life in shame, believing she failed to raise her daughter properly. Her maternal grandparents are unable to bear both the grief of losing their daughter and the devastating blow to their business, and soon pass away as well.
At just six years old, Su Jinghe becomes the sole heir to an inheritance worth tens of millions. Naturally, this massive fortune falls under the “care” of the marquis, the “kind son-in-law and loving father.”
Ten years later, Su Jinghe returns after mastering martial arts, bringing with her a sharp-tongued old servant, a deadly poison doctor, and shadowy informants. It is time for this man-eating marquis’s household to pay its blood debts!
Facing her hypocritical father, wicked stepmother, scheming second younger sister, and spoiled fourth younger sister, she can throw punches in every direction and put on a show with the best of them. If they want to play false, she’ll make sure they have nowhere left to hide behind their lies.
And that huge inheritance? It’s hers, so she can spend it however she likes. First, she’ll splash out five million to buy herself the title of County Princess! When word gets out, even several princes can’t sit still. They all rush over to cling to this “golden thigh.”
Prince Chen: Junior Sister, you’re taking the act a little too far!
Prince Rui: My Lady, if you’ll marry me, I’ll do anything for you!
Su Jingxi: Eldest Sister, you’re so poor you have nothing but money.
