Burning Heart Ce (the novel is also known as Jinyulu/Jinyushu/Zhaoyeshu)
Shen Zhiwei (also known as Zhaoye) was twenty-eight years old when she died. She was poisoned by her husband and his concubine. She was reborn at the age of twenty with the memory of eight years of marriage and a belly full of corpses.
She was once the perfect victim of virtue and virtue, but in this life she has to be an avenger who takes the initiative to get her hands dirty. Taking advantage of the information gap and system loopholes, she built a fleet, infiltrated political power, used her illness as an edge, and weaved a dragnet under the shell of a "good wife". When her husband Gu Mingzhang fell at the beginning of his official career, when the powerful Cui family was disturbed in advance, and when the mysterious intelligence leader Xie Heng (alias Huaijin) looked through the window paper - she discovered that rebirth was not a gift, but a curse.
The memory of past lives begins to fail, and history is derailed by her interference. Between the shadow of the "candlestick" and Concubine Zheng's "plastic sisterhood", between the guilt of sending her father to jail and the bloody expansion of the business empire, Shen Zhiwei gradually touches the truth that is crueler than revenge: she is becoming the person she once hated.
This is an anti-routine rebirth novel. The heroine does not rely on a golden finger, but relies on sober calculation and self-division; the male protagonist is not a savior, but a mirror of complicity; the villain is not a born evil person, but a poor person alienated by the system. Five volumes of 500,000 words, ranging from personal grievances to institutional criticism, from "fighting evil with evil" to "coexisting with evil", ultimately point to a proposition: When the anger burns out, how do we define ourselves?
The record of the embers - the record of the remaining life burned out, is also a mirror that reflects oneself in the ashes.
