In their previous lives, they were:
A marquis devoted to love and loyalty, and a beloved concubine hidden away.
A frail wife who died young, and a shockingly lavish dowry.
In this life, the tables have turned:
A marquis’s household in steady decline, and a mysterious imperial merchant richer than an entire nation.
A poisonous concubine despised by all, and a rouge so coveted that no amount of money can buy it.
While they thought themselves safe and secure, I had already taken control of their lives and deaths.
When the people who once took everything from me came begging for my mercy, I simply turned with elegance and winked at the person behind me.
“Your Highness, the place is cleared. Now it’s our turn to paint the map of this realm.”
