After three years of giving everything she had and spending her entire dowry to help her husband pass the imperial examinations, Zhao Huansheng got nothing in return but his cold-blooded attempt to have her murdered.
By a stroke of luck, she survived and returned, burning with hatred.
The household accounts? She dumped them on her useless sister-in-law!
Her younger brother? She sent him to the military police to make a career for himself!
Her scummy husband wants to make up for their wedding night? Get lost. Come any closer and I’ll cripple you!
With a cold smile and a blade hidden in her hand, she plots every step carefully, vowing to ruin the treacherous man, make him pay for his crimes, and force him to kneel in repentance!
But what’s with this Prince Bao, grinning at her so playfully?
She punishes scoundrels, and he applauds.
She takes revenge, and he hands her the knife.
Everyone calls her ruthless and underhanded, but he winks at her suggestively. “I like it thrilling. The fiercer, the better…”
She gazes at him coolly. “I want to become the most exalted woman in the realm.”
He raises an eyebrow. “What a coincidence. The woman I want to marry is the most exalted woman in the realm.”
