[A ferocious legitimate daughter with overwhelming martial prowess × a beautiful, tragic, and equally ferocious Eunuch of Nine Thousand Years]
[Two wild cards join forces to tear through the capital]
In her previous life, she was the gentle, long-suffering legitimate daughter of the Marquis’s household. Her entire family drained her dry, her half-sister killed her, and her scoundrel fiancé broke off their engagement. In the end, she died by a length of white silk in a desolate courtyard.
Reborn, Shen Qingran went completely mad.
At the frozen lake banquet, she kicked her half-sister into the icy water. When her father tried to punish her with the family rod, she snapped it and struck him back. When her stepmother put on a false show of virtue, Shen Qingran overturned the table in front of everyone and held a sword to her throat. That night, she poisoned her enemies’ servants, hung their bodies up for all to see, and seized every last bit of cash in the Marquis’s household.
In this life, she wasn’t fighting for a good reputation. She was taking lives. She opened an underground bank, built an intelligence network, and monopolized the black market, killing with one hand and raking in money with the other. Then the all-powerful Eunuch of Nine Thousand Years came to call. Pointing at the bodies littering the ground, he asked with a laugh, “Miss, do you need someone to hand you a knife?”
