The Beloved and Fearless Wife

The legitimate daughter of a duke marries a general and helps him become a renowned commander. Yet her husband and mother-in-law grow to despise her. While she is pregnant, he dotes on his concubine, then has her cut open to take the baby, claiming she is a bringer of bad luck. He even makes her take the blame before having her killed. After a murderous betrayal, she is reborn. She kills her scheming sisters, executes her wicked stepmother, reclaims her mother's dowry, and sends the scoundrel and his concubine to their deaths by her own sword. In this new life, she refuses to lose her heart again, but then she meets a domineering marshal who has no regard for reason. “I'm supposedly the duke's legitimate daughter, but really, I'm just a country girl. I'm not good enough for the marshal. I won't marry you!” “Legitimate daughter or country girl, I'm marrying you either way!” “I'm cruel and won't tolerate you taking concubines. If you don't want your household awash in blood, Marshal, you'd better stay away from me.” “I don't take concubines. I raise wolves, and I'm going to raise you, my she-wolf, to give me a whole litter of pups!”
