In the last life, Shen Qingning regarded the expectations of others as his mission, shielding the prince from the sword and making concessions for the family, but in the end he ended up with the tragic ending of being betrayed and replaced. It was not until the end of her life that she realized that what she should protect most in life was never the recognition of others, but her own original intention and dignity. Once she was reborn, she took off the shackles of being "sensible" and no longer was a pawn at the mercy of others. Facing the assassination at the palace banquet, she chose to protect her own life first; facing the covetousness of her cousin and the favoritism of her family, she no longer forbeared and gave in, but used her wisdom to guard everything that belonged to her; facing the hypocritical temptation of the scumbag, she turned around soberly, no longer obsessed with the past and free from emotional pain.
