A conspiracy claimed the life of Jinxiu, at the hands of the Grand Princess.
Jiang Zhi had nothing but a recipe for tofu. With it clutched in her hand, she set up her first tofu stall in the backstreets of the city.
From selling tofu for two coins a piece to owning the largest tofu workshop in the capital; from a lowborn girl everyone looked down on to the side consort personally chosen by Third Prince Xiao Shiyan.
She moved carefully, pulling out the Grand Princess’s minions one by one. He bided his time and plotted in silence, walking beside her on the road to the throne.
She said, “I want her to pay for her crimes in blood.”
He said, “All right. I’ll be with you.”
This isn’t a Cinderella story. It’s about a woman who claws her way out of the mud with her own hands, carving out a path for herself one strike at a time.
