Tragic Death and Rebirth, The Entire Empire Kneels and Calls Me Ancestor!

After marrying Gao Zhan, Duan Mingxi followed every rule, upheld the three obediences and four virtues, and treated her parents-in-law with respect and filial devotion.

When Gao Zhan helped the new emperor ascend the throne and earned great merit for supporting the ruler, his first act was to divorce her on the grounds that she disrespected her parents-in-law and had borne no children. He asked His Majesty to arrange a marriage so he could bring the woman he loved into his household.

After ten years of marriage, she was still a virgin, yet she had to bear such a vicious accusation, one that could drive her to her death!

Ten years of bitter endurance had become a joke. With the divorce papers before her, she plunged a blade through Gao Zhan's chest, then set a great fire that burned everyone in the Duke of Gao's household who had fed on her flesh and blood to ashes.

She would make the entire Duke of Gao's household join her in the grave!

When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the time before she married Gao Zhan.

She was the legitimate eldest daughter of the Earl of Dingyuan's household, lost for more than ten years. After being reunited with her family, her mother disliked her, her father did not love her, her younger sister was cruel at heart, and her elder brother was a complete scoundrel.

She exposed everyone's schemes, rejected the Gao family's marriage proposal, and turned around to board Prince Rui's ship.

Everyone called her ruthless, wicked to the core, false-hearted, and a poisonous lotus who did every evil under the sun!

In this life, Duan Mingxi would see what Gao Zhan could use to win people's hearts without her generous dowry to support him.

Without the wealth of her adoptive parents, how would the people of the Earl of Dingyuan's household repeat the glory and splendor of their previous life?

In this life, the Gao family would never earn merit for supporting the ruler. She would help the Crown Prince's greatest rival ascend the throne.

She would claim the merit of backing the ruler, and she would claim the future emperor too!
