The Wicked Matriarch Is Reborn, and Her Ex-Husband's Whole Family Is Doomed

Reborn After Being Framed, the Duke's Wife Is Done Playing

*

In her previous life, Shen Yanhui lived a miserable existence.

Her husband was injured while on duty and became impotent, so they adopted two sons and a daughter from his clan.

She raised all three children to adulthood. The eldest son became the top scholar of the Hanlin Academy, the second son a rising military star, and her daughter a celebrated beauty throughout the capital.

But she worked herself to the bone and drained every last ounce of strength from her body. Only on her deathbed did she learn that all three children were her husband's biological offspring.

The three children took turns forcing life-ending medicine on her, asking her to die and make room for their birth mother.

Her husband looked impatient as he told her that he had felt nothing but disgust for her all these years, and had never loved her.

Yao Suxin smiled as she told her that she had worked hard all these years, and that she would prepare the grandest funeral for her after her death.

Even the deaths of her father and brothers had been their doing. They wanted to break her spirit so she could do nothing but let the Duke's household drain her dry.

Shen Yanhui died with hatred in her heart, then was reborn.

Her eldest son hated her because he found studying too hard? Then she'd have someone take him out to fight crickets and chase dogs.

Her second son caused trouble every day and was incorrigibly wild? Then she'd indulge and spoil him until he caused even greater disasters.

Her youngest daughter couldn't learn proper manners? Then she'd let her become the laughingstock of the capital.

Her mother-in-law was a hypocrite, her sister-in-law was vicious, and her husband was unfaithful? Then she'd tear off their masks one by one and make sure everyone in the capital knew the truth.

To take revenge and save her loved ones, she joined forces with Zhao Wuyou, the notorious but short-lived Ninth Eunuch. She planned to help him for mutual benefit, then run once she'd gotten what she wanted. But after saving her loved ones, getting revenge, divorcing her husband, and becoming pregnant, she finally realized:

There was no mutual benefit. Zhao Wuyou had wanted her from the very beginning.

The beast sheathed its fangs and bowed its head to her.

Before meeting Shen Yanhui, Zhao Wuyou thought, "The world is a rotten place. I might as well stir up the waters and let the whole world be buried in the chaos."

After meeting Shen Yanhui, Zhao Wuyou no longer wanted to die.

"A Ying, the world is a beautiful place. Would you like to see it with me?"
