The Fake Princess of the Eastern Palace

Huo Mingzhu is the daughter of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, the commandery princess Mingzhu, who appears to be the apple of everyone's eye.

But later, she is exposed as an impostor who took someone else's place. The real commandery princess is Wei Xuanzhu, the most cherished youngest daughter of the Dongning Marquis's household.

After their identities are switched back, everyone thinks Huo Mingzhu enjoyed eighteen years of Wei Xuanzhu's wealth and glory, so she should feel guilty and defer to Wei Xuanzhu in everything.

Her fiance also breaks off their engagement and turns around to ask for Wei Xuanzhu's hand in marriage.

In an instant, the once lofty commandery princess Mingzhu falls to rock bottom, discarded by both families like a worn-out shoe.

At this point, Huo Mingzhu must have been out of her mind. Desperate to win her family's approval, she yields to Wei Xuanzhu at every turn, giving up her jewelry, fine clothes, and even her position.

But in the end, she still dies.

The rebels are looking for the commandery princess Mingzhu. By then, Huo Mingzhu has already been stripped of her title, and Wei Xuanzhu is the real commandery princess Mingzhu.

But the family members she treasures push her out to save Wei Xuanzhu.

They believe Huo Mingzhu is clever and resourceful enough to escape danger, while Wei Xuanzhu is not and would die.

At the moment of her death, Huo Mingzhu finally understands. Some things simply cannot be forced. She was never meant to have a family that loved her.

Given another life, she changes completely! She repaid the debt for the life that gave birth to her and the kindness of the family that raised her in her previous life. She wants no part of their affection anymore!

Since they'll fall out sooner or later, she doesn't have to give in at every turn or hide her edge to preserve that laughable family affection like she did in her previous life.

Didn't everyone say in her previous life that she was arrogant and domineering, that she never let anything go, and that she couldn't measure up to Wei Xuanzhu? Now she'll show them what real arrogance and domineering behavior look like!
