The Transmigrated Heroine Is All About Her Career

Ongoing novel "The Duke's Lady Is a Black Lotus." Here's the blurb:

Mingyi transmigrated into the wife of the Duke of Fuguo.

Above her was a mean mother-in-law, below her a whole crowd of troublesome legitimate and illegitimate children, and the inner courtyard was packed with the duke's beloved concubines.

The duke had won countless military victories and enjoyed the emperor's favor. When word came that he had been wounded on the battlefield, the emperor even left the palace to welcome him home.

Mingyi cried harder than the rain on the night Yiping went to ask for money.

After she finished crying, Mingyi went back to her old ways: devoting herself to prayer, swallowing her anger when the concubines bullied her, acting meek and obedient in front of her mother-in-law, and tending to her husband day and night.

Before long, her husband's wound worsened and he died. Her mother-in-law soon fell gravely ill and followed him to the grave, while a concubine, overcome with grief, took her own life for love...

A censor impeached Mingyi, accusing her of murder. The emperor tossed the memorial aside and casually found an excuse to exile the censor to a bitterly cold land.

The powerful families of the capital expressed sympathy for Mingyi while secretly waiting for the Duke's estate to come crashing down.

Who could have guessed that, years later, the Duke's estate would still enjoy the emperor's favor, and its title would even become hereditary in perpetuity?

But when Xiao Wanzhi transmigrated, she plunged headfirst into a treacherous, bloody struggle over the throne.

To protect herself and those around her, with her rivals already holding the advantage, she had no choice but to plan every step carefully, rack her brains, and join forces with others to help Prince Su ascend to the pinnacle of power.
