The Beauty in Her Eyes

Blurb 1: Shen Jiang, the third daughter of the Marquis of Changping, was raised in the countryside from birth. Then one day, she dreamed that her biological father would be thrown in prison, their family would be stripped of its title and estate overnight, and she herself would be killed while going to the capital to save him. When she woke up, she was relieved it had only been a dream. But the very next day, urgent news from the capital arrived: her father had been imprisoned, and the family estate had been seized. It had all come true. Now the only thing left was her going to the capital to save her father and getting killed... Could she still go to the capital? She could! * Everyone waited for the third daughter of the Marquis of Changping, raised in the countryside, to be trampled into the dirt. But as they waited and waited... Shen Jiang had already used her dream to befriend all sorts of future bigwigs. A future Grand Secretary who was only a seventh-rank official for now. A young general whose family had fallen on hard times. A future tycoon who spent his days racing horses and fighting cocks, living off his wealth and waiting to die. She'd turned her little pond into a vast ocean. The only person she kept at arm's length was Xie Xun, heir to the Prince of Ying. According to some, he was radiant and noble as a god; according to others, he was obsessive and sinister. Shen Jiang put it plainly: "Such wildly contradictory rumors, and a personality that seems to change like a mad dog's. He must be terribly unpredictable. Better not get close to him." That was, until she discovered the true identity of the handsome, gentle, down-and-out young man next door, whom she'd casually rescued on the way to the capital. Oh, wow. This man has two faces. By the time the heir apparent had become a powerful, ruthless demon king who held sway over the court, he had abducted her to his estate and gazed at the young woman before him with a gentle, reckless smile. "If you want someone dead, Third Miss, I'll raise the blade myself." [Little Scene] Only after arriving in the capital did Shen Jiang realize that the place was like one enormous gambling den. Once the bets were placed, there was no turning back. The winners soared to the top, while the losers were executed or exiled. Shen Jiang: "The capital is really interesting." A seemingly unhinged, personality-shifting heir apparent x a seemingly delicate but genuinely 'ruthless' little fairy Theme: My fate is mine to command. I'll turn the tables against all odds.
