    This is the story of a female protagonist who is reborn to seek revenge. In her previous life, she was murdered by a scumbag. In this life, she schemes and plots her way to victory. Born into a humble family, she becomes allies with the male protagonist, a prince. Both the political and romantic storylines are well-developed, but the female protagonist is not a love-struck, clear-headed, and independent woman. The foreshadowing is quite clever.
