Stealing from the Household with Spatial Storage + Face-Slapping Family Intrigue + Courtroom Comedy + A Groveling Ex's Road to Redemption.
Jiang Qiyue is a top-tier troublemaker who spent eight hundred years in the underworld without being reincarnated. The King of Hell kicks her out: "Go help some resentful ghosts move on. Stop causing trouble down here!"
She opens her eyes and finds herself in the body of the Minister of Revenue's legitimate daughter. In her previous lives, her stepmother tormented her and her fiance ruined her reputation, leading to two miserable deaths. In her third life, her resentment is so intense that neither Black nor White Impermanence can drag her away.
Jiang Qiyue rolls up her sleeves. "I'll take this injustice on myself."
She castrates scumbag men, tears into wicked women, and empties corrupt officials' mansions. Overnight, Xuandu City gains a "living bodhisattva" and a "little thief" who has the officials at court tightening their belts.
At the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, she breaks off her engagement in public, then makes sure the scumbag and his scheming younger sister are stuck together. The emperor bestows on her the title of Commandery Princess Zhaoshan. Now that she has a mansion and a fief, Jiang Qiyue brushes off her sleeves: beautiful scenery, delicious food, handsome men, here I come.
Regent Su Yuheng blocks her at the door with a cold expression. "Stealing from me is one thing, but shouldn't you explain the child you're carrying?"
Jiang Qiyue: "Get lost. I haven't even found the child's father yet."
Su Yuheng: "No need to look. I'm the father."
Jiang Qiyue laughs coldly. "I swore that when I found the child's father, I'd flay him, pull out his tendons, and cut him to pieces. Let's see if you can take it."
Su Yuheng takes off his outer robe and lies down on the bed. "I can take it. I want the child, and I want you too. Come on."
Jiang Qiyue: "Just you wait."
Su Yuheng: Wait, then. He's the one who started this fire, so he'll have to put it out, even if he has to do it on his knees.
