The wife of the Marquis of Jingyuan was accused by an old servant of having an affair with another man and giving birth to her eldest daughter, Baozhu.
After a bloodline test, Baozhu was indeed found not to be the Marquis of Jingyuan’s daughter.
To prove her innocence, the Marchioness took her own life. In consideration of the years she had raised Baozhu, the Marquis allowed her to mourn the Marchioness before being cast out of the household.
On the fifth day, a young woman riding a donkey knocked on the gates of the marquis’s residence.
“Father, Mother, open up! It’s A Heng. I’ve come to claim my family!”
A Heng was the Marquis of Jingyuan’s real daughter. She had been switched at birth and raised elsewhere.
On her sixteenth birthday, she came to the marquis’s residence to reunite with her birth parents.
She arrived too late to see her birth mother.
But that was all right.
She could summon her mother’s spirit and bring her back.

The Marquis of Jingyuan’s mistress became the daughter of a Grand Tutor, and he was already preparing to make her his legal wife.
He had also arranged for his two illegitimate children to return and claim their place in the family.
A Heng’s arrival threw all his plans into disarray.
The marquis was forced to swear that he would never marry again.
He refused to take that seriously and still decided to bring his mistress into the household.
On the illegitimate daughter’s first day back in the capital, a face-stealing demon tore off her face.

A monster escaped from the dungeons of the Mingjing Bureau and attacked people everywhere, spreading panic.
Commander Pei Wuhuan tracked it to the Marquis of Jingyuan’s residence.
Everyone thought the newly acknowledged Miss A Heng would die beneath the monster’s fangs.
The magnificent lights in the marquis’s rear courtyard surrounded the girl, but none shone as brightly as she did.
She planted a foot on the monster’s back and tore its head off with her bare hands.
Pei Wuhuan took the monster’s corpse away, along with the marquis’s daughter, who might have been possessed.
As it stands, it looks good, but it's a pity it's not finished. I don't like to wait, I hope the author will update soon.
