In her previous life, she was Lu Yan, the honored Princess of Qingyang, but on the eve of her wedding, her entire family was massacred, and she died consumed by hatred.
In this life, she is reborn as Chen Huai, the daughter of a seventh-rank county magistrate. Her memories remain intact, and she vows to tear apart this bloodstained game of power.
The court is a treacherous maze, and her enemies hold high positions.
She hides her sharp edge and advances step by step under the guise of weakness: planting clues at poetry gatherings, leveraging marriage alliances to sway the powerful, and turning natural disasters into a chance to strike back at her political rivals.
“If this realm is built on lies, then I will be the blade that cuts through them.”
