A child-raising story. The heroine transmigrates, but has forgotten many of her memories and is practically a child herself.
Yu Han once thought she had transmigrated as the daughter of the novel's heroine.
Her mother was a peerless beauty who possessed every quality a novel's heroine should have.
First, she was breathtakingly beautiful, universally adored, with countless admirers at her feet.
Second, she was exceptionally clever and refined. As a young woman, she disguised herself and traveled through many kingdoms, earning the admiration of their rulers.
Third, she came from a distinguished family and married the most powerful ruler among the feudal lords. After their marriage, she became her husband's capable partner and kept the marquis's household in perfect order. She was also charitable and famous throughout Chang'an, the foremost lady of the capital.
For the first few years of her life, Yu Han spent every day cuddling up to her beautiful mother and living a carefree life.
Until one day, the mother and daughter were driven from their home and died in each other's arms in a snowstorm. Only then did Yu Han remember the entire plot of the novel.
Her mother was the legendary beauty, the one whose name had once resounded throughout the Thirteen Kingdoms, but who lived only in people's memories. She died young, and all under heaven mourned her.
After her death, her friends and family transferred all their longing for her to the transmigrated heroine, whose looks bore a striking resemblance to hers, and kept giving her golden fingers.
Her entire life had been spent making wedding clothes for someone else.
Marquis Qi guards the border, while the whole marquis's household in the capital is a den of vipers.
The gentle and unambitious Lady of the House, hoping to "keep the peace and avoid conflict," took her young daughter to live in a secluded courtyard and gave ground time and again. All she got in return was more and more bullying, until she was ultimately killed.
As the ultimate mama's girl, Yu Han felt her mother's suffering was unjust when she was reborn.
Looking at the chaos in the marquis's household, Yu Han, in her darkened form, flipped the table: If her mother wouldn't fight, she would.
She pushed the cousin who bullied her into the water, frightened her sickly, male-favoring grandmother into falling ill, and poisoned the uncle who coveted her mother's beauty.
Yu Han said it was all a piece of cake.
Then, one time after doing something bad, she hurriedly dropped an ornament and had to go back for it. There, she caught her mother expertly finishing off an uncle who was still barely alive. Blood spattered across her mother's pale, cold face, and the aloof beauty was stained with grime.
Yu Han: "..."
The good news was that her mother had been reborn, too, giving her an ally on her path to revenge.
The bad news was that her mother had gone much further down the dark path than she had, and was far more unhinged.
Yu Lanzhao had spent her life making plans for her family, only to be betrayed in a long-planned scheme after they had squeezed every last bit of value from her. By the end, sick and exhausted, she could not even protect her own child.
After she died, she drifted in the air, helplessly watching her husband bring another mother and daughter into their home and effortlessly take over everything that had belonged to her and her child. Her hatred consumed her.
Reborn before any of it had happened, Yu Lanzhao had only three things on her mind: revenge, divorce, and making her daughter happy.
To bring down the Marquis of Qi's household, Yu Lanzhao took a dangerous gamble and joined forces with Xu Mubai, the leader of the refugee bandits feared by the feudal lords of all thirteen provinces.
She gave him intelligence, and he gave her troops.
He helped her kill every enemy, and she helped him seize the realm.
It was a deal in which each got what they needed. Once everything was settled, they would go their separate ways: he would become emperor, and she would live a peaceful life with her daughter. But she couldn't for the life of her figure out why this fox of a man insisted on clinging to her and climbing into her bed, or why he tried so hard to coax her daughter into calling him Father.
