Transmigrated into the real heiress who was thrown out by her whole family, Su Wan is done pretending!
The fake heiress plays the sickly innocent? Su Wan uses basic modern medical knowledge to expose her in public and tear off her hypocritical mask!
A biased father, a grandmother who takes sides, and a scumbag brother using morality to guilt-trip her?
Su Wan flips the table in front of everyone and slaps a severance letter in their faces. “I’m done serving this rotten marquis’s household!”
Xiao Xuanting, the powerful and ruthless regent of the Great Yin Dynasty, unexpectedly hears her thoughts.
He thinks she’s a desperate little waif, but who knew this woman is a work-obsessed maniac inside?
[Short-lived tyrant? He’s pretty hot. I’ll borrow his power to save my life first.]
[You want to play household intrigue with me? Just wait until I go to my fief and build heavy industry. I’ll show you what a dimensionality-reduction attack looks like!]
The regent silently puts away his long saber. This woman is rather interesting.
After she leaves the capital, everyone there waits to see Su Wan starve to death in the wilderness.
Instead, she binds to the [Merit Infrastructure System] and takes off in the barren lands!
While you squabble over favors in the inner quarters, I’m opening mines and building factories on my fief. While you scheme every which way to marry into the Eastern Palace, I’ve built a steam engine and paved cement roads, leading the people to prosperity!
By the time the marquis’s household has fallen into poverty and the fake heiress’s dreams have shattered, Su Wan has amassed all the wealth in the land, and even the emperor treats her with deference.
The once-arrogant Su family kneels and begs her to return to the fold. “Wanwan, the marquis’s household was wrong!”
But the fearsome regent shields her possessively and laughs. “Return to the fold? I’ve given her every last asset of my regent’s estate as her betrothal gift to fund her research. What makes you think you’re entitled to a share?”
