[Brother and Sister | Light Historical Comedy | Subverting the Usual Book-Transmigration Plot | Family Ensemble Satisfaction]

Su Zhiwei transmigrates into an old-fashioned, angsty political intrigue novel.

The good news: she's the legitimate daughter of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's household, with a powerful older brother who can sway the court and a second brother of incomparable elegance.

The bad news: her entire family is destined to be stepping stones on the male and female leads' path to the throne. They'll all be executed, with tragic endings.

No way! To stay alive, she has to help the marquis's household rise to power!

Everyone in the capital knows the Loyal and Brave Marquis's household has three treasures.

The eldest son, Su Shiheng, wields enormous power and is impartial and stern. He's the living King of Hell, feared by every official.

The second son and the young lady are a useless pair of fraternal twins, good for nothing but showing off and fighting over attention.

I'm that useless eldest daughter.

My daily routine is competing with my second brother to see who can win more of our eldest brother's favor and who can get into less trouble.

Su Zhiwei straightens her back. “Today, I relied entirely on propriety to convince everyone. I was so dignified, I even scared myself.”

“What drug did you use?”

“Divine Itch.”

The Marchioness presses a hand to her forehead. “You certainly confessed quickly.”

“Mother, you caught me so off guard that I didn't have time to make something up.”

In the eyes of outsiders, the marquis's second son and eldest daughter are notorious wastrels and fools.

That is, until the female lead of the original novel sets a trap for them at a palace banquet.

Su Zhiwei uses the finest aristocratic etiquette to nail her firmly to a pillar of shame.

Her second brother even diagnoses a hidden illness on the spot, exposing his secret identity as a reclusive poison doctor.

The world is stunned, and people flood the court with accusations that the marquis's siblings are arrogant and overbearing.

The marquis's household's cold-faced menace draws his sword and points it at the officials in the court:

“My younger brother and sister may be young and ignorant, but everything they did was in accordance with Great Zhou law. Who agrees, and who objects?”

One secret identity after another is revealed, shocking the whole court.
