【A heroine devoted to her career + a devoted hero with no past or present entanglements + a satisfying revenge story + unrequited love】
In her previous life, Shen Miaoyi was the most honored young lady of the Shen family. But her own father treated her as a tool to climb the political ladder. Because she refused to follow his arrangements, her family abandoned her. Her stepmother murdered her, and she became a casualty of the power struggle...
Reborn overnight, Shen Miaoyi became Gu Qiqi, the true daughter of the Marquis of Yong’an’s household who had been living away from home. But before she could return to the capital,
her relatives and half-sister plotted against her, leaving her with both legs broken.
After six months of recovery, Shen Miaoyi returned to the capital as the true heiress who had been switched at birth and kept away from the marquis’s household for fifteen years.
She acted delicate and frail, but behind the scenes she laid traps at every turn, killing, setting fires, and disposing of bodies as she avenged herself in the capital, where nobles gathered, and stirred up a storm...
Yan Cizhi was the Commander of the Palace Guard, a man feared by everyone in the capital. He never imagined that he would keep dreaming at night of Gu Qiqi, whom he had only met twice. Whenever Yan Cizhi investigated corrupt officials, he kept running into the woman who appeared in his dreams night after night. At first, he thought she was merely a marquis’s daughter who had been switched and kept away for fifteen years: resentful, audacious, and a suspect in every murder...
Only later did he realize she was the person he had secretly loved since childhood.
