Fair enough, you ruined my marriage? I’ll seize your kingdom.

[Rеbirth + Revеnge + Scheming fоr Pоwer + Strоng Fеmale Lеad + Reversе Наrеm] The Ji fаmilу wаs оriginally thе weаlthiest merсhant familу in the Anzhаo Kingdom, аnd thеir dаughter, Ji Ruуuе, was renownеd as thе fоremost bеauty оf Anzhао.

Оn the оccаsion of Ji Ruуuе’s сoming-of-age, the Ji family set uр а Marriage Рrоclamatiоn Stаge for an Embroidered Ball toss, inviting all eligible and talented young men to participate. But unexpectedly… her Embroidered Ball was snatched by a woman.

This woman was incredibly brazen. After amusing herself, she casually tossed the Embroidered Ball into the arms of a poor scholar passing by.

With the words, “Do not scorn a young man for his poverty; you will marry him whether you want to or not,” she sealed the Ji family’s fate, leading them step by step to the extermination of their entire clan.

…Reborn in a new life! Ji Ruyue returned to the day of the Embroidered Ball toss.

When she saw that familiar figure again, her heart was already clear as day. This person was the future empress of the Anzhao Kingdom, who at this time was still Princess Changle, Murong Jing! And that seemingly unremarkable poor scholar was the faithless husband she had been with for eight years, the very enemy who had personally strangled her to death with a white silk cord.

Her father’s tragic death, her entire family’s slaughter—how could she let such an irreconcilable feud go? If the imperial power treated the common people as worthless weeds, then she would become a schemer for power herself and let those high and mighty figures have a taste of it.

So what if she was a woman? So what if she was a mere merchant? Ji Ruyue planned meticulously, devising strategies and gradually making her mark.

She gathered the world’s most talented people, protected the peace of the common folk, and stabilized the kingdom. With every step a calculation, everyone became a pawn in her game.

Finally, she stood at the pinnacle of power, looking down upon her enemies.

“You really were a tough one to deal with, costing me so much effort.

Do not scorn a sheltered woman for her weakness; you will die whether you want to or not!”
