The Real Heiress Is Reborn: I Won't Be the Wicked Stepmother Anymore

In her previous life, Jiang Mingyue married as a second wife and became a stepmother. Her hypocritical husband and vicious stepchildren ruined her family and left her without a proper burial. She should have been a pampered young lady, but becoming a stepmother led to her wicked stepchildren killing her father and brother and getting her maternal grandfather's entire family condemned to death. She was framed for colluding with the enemy and betraying her country, and nearly had her skin flayed alive by the Living Yama of the Secret Guards...

Reborn, Jiang Mingyue gives her tormentors a taste of their own medicine. Her ex-husband wants to deceive her with his false show of sincerity? Get lost! The white lotus wants to steal her family's heirloom token? Die! The children want to harm her and her family? Dream on! Her adopted daughter wants to reclaim her title as imperial princess and become empress, overthrowing the Great Yan dynasty? Keep dreaming!

As for the Living Yama of the Secret Guards who once wanted to flay her alive... Well, flaying her is out of the question, but he can offer himself to her instead.
