The Yu dynasty fell, and all its lands came under the rule of Liang. The tyrant Emperor Yu and his demon empress, Lady Lin, were buried in a sea of flames.
She was reborn in the body of Lin Shuangji, a concubine-born daughter of the Grand Tutor, and sent to Prince Jing's residence as a pawn to secure her sister's favor and bear him a child.
Unfortunately, her predecessor had been meek, her older sister was weak and constantly ill, and the entire household was under the control of the secondary consort, Li Yueyao. The two sisters had become the household's favorite soft targets, ripe for anyone to take advantage of.
But she was no delicate young lady. They made her live in a drafty room? Refused to give her warm clothes?
Lin Shuangji set half the prince's residence ablaze so everyone could warm themselves.
Play political games? This woman had been the demon empress in her previous life!
She had expected another life of careful maneuvering and dangerous alliances, but who would have thought this prince seemed a little like that tyrant?
"Brother Jing, Lin, your concubine, burned down half the residence. You must punish her severely!"
The dignified man before her simply waved a hand. "Let her burn it. If she wishes, I would win the whole world for her."
