After being forced away from home for five years, Nie Huaixi returns to the Earl of Changyi’s residence with her mother’s ashes, only to find that someone else has already taken her place.
Nie Mingzhu, the daughter of a concubine who faked her death and drove Nie Huaixi’s mother away, has replaced her as the Nie family’s beloved lucky star.
Her brothers, who once doted on her, grip her wrist and lower their voices, each word cutting like a knife. “Nie Huaixi, Mother caused Mingzhu’s mother’s death. We have to make it right.”
They see her holding her mother’s ashes.
Her brothers look at her in disappointment. “Are you trying to imitate Mingzhu? You’d even curse your own mother just to compete for affection. You really are a poisonous woman!”
Nie Huaixi does everything she can to win over her father and three brothers, sacrificing everything for them.
Yet they continue to favor Nie Mingzhu.
Even the childhood sweetheart Nie Huaixi was betrothed to publicly breaks off their engagement at her coming-of-age ceremony and asks to marry Nie Mingzhu, turning her into a laughingstock.
Then, for the sake of a good marriage match, these people join forces to kill her.
Reborn, she gives up all hope of winning her family’s love and asks to sever ties with them.
In her previous life, she already repaid them with her life.
In this life,
to uncover the truth, she gains the Empress Dowager’s support and uses her exceptional medical skills to cure the Crown Prince, who was on the verge of becoming an invalid.
Years later, after claiming the throne, the Crown Prince asks, “Will you rule this realm by my side?”
Meanwhile, the brothers she has long since disowned all come looking for her, red-eyed and begging her to forgive them.
She kicks them away and says just one thing: “Kneel farther away!”
