The Rebirth of Consort Hui [Qing Dynasty]

Men's words are lies. The emperor clearly said she was someone he trusted deeply.

But her own son was taken out of the palace at birth. Later, the emperor used him as a whetstone to hone the crown prince, never giving him the slightest chance to get ahead.

Her adopted son, Yinzhi, was afraid of being associated with her, so he deliberately doted on concubines and neglected his wife, leading to the Seventh Princess Consort's untimely death.

Her adopted son, Yinsi, had an excellent reputation, but the emperor grew wary of him and cursed him as the son of a lowly servant.

Her adopted son, Yintang, loved doing business, which the emperor hated. He blamed her for failing to raise her son properly.

Her adopted son, Yinxiang, turned against her as well, first siding with the crown prince and later with Yinzhen.

Her adopted son, Yinzhen, was simple-hearted and just one step away from the throne, but in the end he missed his chance...

In her previous life, Consort Hui lived a life of failure.

Reborn, Consort Hui is going to settle the score with all of them!
