In her previous life, Yingzhu was born in a brothel but was fortunate enough to enter the Marquis of Xuanping’s household, becoming a concubine to the heir, Xie Huaiying.
The heir was kind, and she had hoped to live out her days in peace, but the heir’s wife, Madam Zhou, targeted her, causing her to lose two children in succession.
Seeking revenge, she fought Madam Zhou until they both suffered devastating losses.
But after Madam Zhou died, Yingzhu was framed for murder. Only then did she realize that Xie Huaiying had orchestrated everything.
He had done it only to conceal her true parentage and protect the fake heiress.
Reborn, Yingzhu finds Madam Zhou and tells her about the schemes of the man at her side.
The two join forces to lay a net around the scum and his mistress, vowing to make them pay in blood!
Later, Xie Huaiying tries to repeat the old trick and lure her into becoming his concubine:
“Ying’er, I never knew the taste of love until I met you.”
“Though I can’t give you the title of primary wife, I can give you my heart.”
Yingzhu scoffs. “How many coins is your heart worth?”
The heir’s wife steps out from behind the scenes, her expression full of disgust. “Not a single one.”
