The Reborn Heiress Topples a Dynasty with Her Money

In her previous life, Gu Wanjiu helped the crown prince secure the throne by sending her own brother to the battlefield and forcing her father to frame loyal officials. He ascended the throne, then took Gu Wanjiu’s half-sister by the hand and made her empress. Only then did Gu Wanjiu see the truth: everything she had done had simply helped someone else reap the rewards. Years later, with his position secure, he had her watch as her entire family was beheaded, the Gu family’s fortune seized and transferred to the imperial treasury, and the man she loved poisoned in the emperor’s arms. Gu Wanjiu gave him a taste of his own medicine, dying alongside him in a cloud of poison. When she opened her eyes again, she was an unmarried young woman, and the scoundrel and his mistress were scheming against her just as they had in her previous life. She decided to turn their scheme to her advantage, continuing to play the haughty, overbearing young lady while enjoying her freedom and joining forces with her captive husband to bring down the whole dynasty!
