The moment Lin Qinghe opens her eyes after transmigrating, she finds herself inside a coffin!
It turns out the original owner was born with superhuman strength.
Her two uncles want her to join them in their wicked schemes and become a local tyrant.
She refuses, so they force her into marriage. She resists and hangs herself, but even after death they plan to marry her off to a dead relative.
Marry your own father off to a dead relative!
She bursts out of the coffin and beats back her two uncles.
Unfortunately, the law says a marriage contract can only be voided by someone with official status.
Fine!
She will get out of this marriage, no matter what!
Getting official status can’t be that hard!
She sells calligraphy and paintings, works as a hired fighter, saves money for the trip, and takes the imperial examinations!
She will become the first female top scholar and win back her freedom!
People laugh at her for being too ambitious.
They laugh that a girl as strong as her will never find a husband.
Lin Qinghe only smiles and keeps her head down, studying hard for honors.
Then one day, the results are announced
The new top scholar is Lin Qinghe.
The classmates who mocked her crowd around with smiles:
“Congratulations, new top scholar!”
