They cut her open and killed her child. Her aunt and half-sister gouged out her eyes, severed her hands, and threw her into the Consort Dowager’s tomb as a sacrifice. Reborn in a new life, she becomes a demon of vengeance. Abusive servants? Beat them to death! Vicious men and women? Skin them and tear out their tendons! Hypocritical aunt and half-sister? Turn them into human stumps!
Rumor has it that Qin Shiyue, the Qin family’s legitimate daughter, is so beautiful that one smile can outshine the world, yet she is as cruel as a snake and kills without mercy. She loves the Buddha, but her heart remains murderous, earning her the name of demoness. The Ninth Imperial Uncle, the Ghost King, is a slaughtering god who defies heaven. Cold and ruthless, he once led his ghost army in a massacre of three hundred thousand, and no one knows the depths of his power.
One day, news reaches the imperial capital that Qin Shiyue is to marry His Highness Prince Qin. The world is stunned: a demoness and a Ghost King together can only bring calamity. And sure enough, she is jealous, she monopolizes his affection, and she is wicked. They brand her a scourge who brings ruin to the nation and its people.
She stands by him as he rules the world, and he spoils her until she becomes a wicked woman who does whatever she pleases, without fear of the law.
