In her previous life, Su Wanqing was the beloved legitimate daughter of a general's family, blessed with both beauty and talent, and grace beyond compare. She was hailed as the foremost young lady in the capital.
But she listened to her half-sister's slander, came to despise her fiance, and gave her sincere devotion and all her support to another man.
Only when she saw her half-sister being intimate with that scoundrel did she realize she was nothing but a pawn to be used. Then a long blade pierced her chest, and her entire family was slaughtered.
When she opened her eyes again, three years had passed.
*
Jiang Mingyue, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Yongding, was notorious throughout the capital as an ugly, foolish woman: unattractive, yet with delusions of grandeur.
She flaunted her family's immense wealth and bullied the weak. Shamelessly, she even begged the emperor to arrange her marriage to Prince Jing. On their wedding night, desperate to get the prince into the bridal chamber, she went so far as to smash her head against a pillar.
The world mocked and scorned her ugliness. Her husband despised her for stopping at nothing to get what she wanted. Even the scoundrel and vile woman who had once killed her used her to seize her family's wealth.
The moment Su Wanqing opened her eyes, she had to take over Jiang Mingyue's disastrous life.
Ridiculous! She was descended from a great general and a disciple of the Medicine King. How could she let these wretches bully her?
In a single transformation, her beauty blossomed, and she became the talk of the capital.
With a pair of miraculous hands, she could heal the dead and restore flesh to bone, bringing people back from the brink of death.
And the husband who once despised her clutched her hand and drew her against his chest, pleading softly, "Jiaojiao, don't go..."
