The Poisonous Physician's Daughter

She was the Shen family's legitimate daughter. For his sake, she risked life and limb, stained her hands with blood, and helped him fight for the empire. Ten years of love and marriage couldn't compete with a single smile from her half-sister. But then time turned back. Reborn as the marquis's legitimate daughter, she takes control of her fate and plans every move carefully. She protects her younger brother, safeguards her father, and seizes the family fortune, leaving her enemies howling in terror. Her grandmother has ulterior motives? Then she'll make sure there's nothing left for her to scheme with, driving her mad. Her stepmother pretends to be kind? Then she'll make sure no one sees her as anything but a filthy, lowly wretch. Her cousin plots cruelly against her? Then she'll poison her from within, ruin her beautiful face, and leave her too ashamed to show herself. Her half-sister is sweet-tongued but treacherous? Then she'll tear off her painted mask and throw her into a brothel. Her uncle is a scoundrel? With her golden needles in hand, she'll make sure he lives in fear from then on. Her faithless lover is all false affection? She'll play along and destroy the empire he fought so hard to build. She is as cruel as a viper. “In this life, I'd rather wrong the whole world than let the world wrong me. Everyone who has bullied or humiliated me will be ground into the dirt.” She thought her vengeance was complete and her heart dead, and planned to spend the rest of her life in peace, alone on a boat. But she never seemed to run out of admirers. As it turns out, finding peace is no easy thing...
