On their wedding night, her husband went off to war. Jiang Zhiyu waited for a year, only to receive an imperial decree announcing her husband’s marriage to a princess.
How could a married man marry a princess? It turned out that the husband’s name on the marriage certificate had long since been swapped. To climb the social ladder, she had been traded to his crippled elder brother, becoming his sister-in-law.
He claimed it was all due to the pressure of power, an act of desperation. To set things right, she offered her medical prescriptions time and again, helping him rise to the top. Yet she was pushed step by step into the abyss, eventually becoming so powerless she could only watch as her loved ones became his stepping stones and her own life was drained to the bone.
With a fatal blow, she was reborn.
Returning to the day she was forced to swap marriages, this time, she takes the initiative! In this life, she will not be a helpless bird trapped in the inner chambers; she will break free, seize power, and live as she pleases.
Not only will she be the scumbag’s sister-in-law, but she will also be the Heir’s Consort and the Matriarch of the Marquis Manor.
Her husband’s legs are crippled, preventing him from inheriting the title? She’ll cure him! Her mother-in-law is timid and lacks management skills? She’ll teach her! From his wheelchair, her new husband stared at her with cold, dark eyes and asked, “What is your goal?”
“Because we are husband and wife for life. You will be the Marquis, and I will be the Marchioness. I can help you take beautiful concubines, but the mistress of this house can only be me.”
Years later, he shoved the Empress’s golden seal into her hands.
“I don’t want a single concubine. But you were right—the mistress of this house can only be you.”
Jiang Zhiyu: Is it too late to regret this now?
