    Shen Qingyi was reborn. In her previous life, when Consort Ning poisoned her, she realized that her constant concessions only led to her death. In this life, she was wiser—she didn't vie for favor, didn't make enemies, and didn't stand out. But she opened the largest spice shop in the entire harem, and her intelligence network was more sophisticated than the Imperial Observatory. On the surface, she seemed helpless, but secretly, the Jiangnan trade routes were all her people. The emperor used her as a pawn, so she made sure he couldn't leave her. Consort Ning wanted to fight? Fine, she'd fight until she committed suicide in the cold palace. The empress wanted to be deposed? Fine, she'd depose her until her entire family was exiled. Court officials wanted to rebel? Come on, let's see if your military power can last three months. From a noblewoman to empress dowager, Shen Qingyi only used one sentence—"In this life, I will not be anyone's pawn, but only the one playing the game."

    The first book is a healing novel. There's no scheming or intrigue. The second book is a multi-couple story, with political intrigue, ancient Chinese setting, and revenge, but it doesn't involve any tactlessness or abuse of the female characters.
