Sheng Shangyu was playing a princess of a fallen kingdom in a quick transmigration mission when, on the eve of reclaiming her kingdom, she was unexpectedly assassinated.
When she woke up again, she brought her System with her into a melodramatic wealthy-family novel and became the eldest daughter of the Sheng family.
The good news: The Sheng family was large and prosperous, with plenty of servants and bodyguards. Her Highness was finally no longer a princess all alone!
The bad news: The original owner's mother had died young, her father was unconscious, and a vicious stepmother ran the household. Her four younger siblings were all hopeless. Even the bodyguards at Her Highness's side were spies sent by her stepmother.
Conclusion: She had gone from a princess all alone (fallen-kingdom edition) to a young lady all alone (bankrupt edition).
Sheng Shangyu: ... If I can reclaim a kingdom, what could be so hard about managing one family!
No one under the Princess's command was fit for the job?
She went to Boss Zhipin and held a grand examination to recruit talent. Even an unofficially appointed official was still an official!
Her stepmother schemed to seize the Sheng family's assets?
She used the System to check her household retainers' loyalty with one click and quickly exposed the corporate spies.
Her troublesome younger siblings kept taking turns causing trouble?
She picked excellent tutors from the wise ministers section: If you won't listen to instruction, the Grand Tutor also knows a few martial arts moves.
Later, the eldest daughter of the Sheng family single-handedly purged the household, steadied the stock price, and unlocked the achievement [Powerful Enough to Rule the Court].
One scholar wrote in an assessment: A daughter favored by fate, with limitless potential.
The entire circle of wealthy families was stunned.
Meanwhile, Fu Congyun, the heir to a top-tier wealthy family, suddenly found an assassin System in his head, urging him every day to assassinate some Grand Princess.
Fu Congyun: The Qing Dynasty fell ages ago. Where am I supposed to find a Grand Princess?
Then one day, he ran into Sheng Shangyu at a banquet.
The eldest daughter of the Sheng family instantly turned pale and cried out, "There's an assassin!"
Fu Congyun was immediately surrounded by several of her bodyguards.
The System chimed and popped up: Target confirmed.
Fu Congyun knocked one of them flat with a punch: A little late to tell me that now, isn't it!
Through a twist of fate, the assassin and the Grand Princess became betrothed.
At first, Fu Congyun refused to do his missions: It's just a fine, right? I've got money to burn!
Later, he went all out on his missions. "My mission today is to whip you."
"Can I wildly lash your lips with my tongue?"
Theme: It's this palace's turn to take the stage.
