Synopsis: [The Whole Family's Redemption Arc] [Satisfying Household Intrigue] [Romantic Rivalry] [Face-Slapping and Crushing the Villains]
In her previous life, Jiang Shuyan's legs were crushed when she saved the princess.
Her title was taken away, and her engagement to the Fifth Prince was stolen. Her family despised her for being disabled and sent her to a country estate to live or die on her own.
Only on her deathbed did Jiang Shuyan discover that her stepsister and fiance had been secretly carrying on behind her back.
Her stepsister stroked her swollen belly and smiled at her.
"Thank you for making this possible for me, Sister."
Her fiance stared at her pretty face with feigned sincerity.
"Shuyan, I wanted to take you as a concubine. I really did love you once."
Then they set a fire and burned Jiang Shuyan alive.
When she opened her eyes again, she was back before the fire at the imperial retreat.
So you like sneaking around, do you?
With the princess at her side, Jiang Shuyan first catches them in the act, then breaks off the engagement, making the affair between her stepsister and the Fifth Prince known to the whole capital.
She clings to the princess for support and takes down every enemy, one by one, two by two!
She accidentally becomes a villain, and when she turns around, a pack of wolves is circling her!
Shen Tingzhou, the cold and ruthless chief of the Xuanfeng Guard, seems like he's there to arrest her. Who knew he'd be there to hand her a knife?
"That one's dull. Use this one."
The carefree heir to the Prince of Nanling points at the body on the ground.
"You're not very strong. Want help burying it?"
Even the ever-idle Seventh Prince, who never concerns himself with worldly affairs, and her devoted, obedient little follower have started looking at her strangely.
Jiang Shuyan doesn't want to provoke anyone.
But these people seem to have eyes fixed on her. Wherever she goes, they follow.
When the Fifth Prince is cornered and tries to burn Jiang Shuyan alive, a figure from her previous life, who once rushed into the flames to save her, appears again amid the raging fire.
This time, Jiang Shuyan sees clearly. The person she has been searching for has been by her side all along.
