Family Reads My Heart, Pretend Heiress Kicks Everyone
In a former life, Jiang Songyi had given everything to sustain familial bonds, but the household harbored contempt, protecting a pretend princess with excessive affection.
Upon rebirth, she chose to stand aside and observe, letting events unfold as they might.
Her betrothed forced her to transfer her protective favor to Jiang Yuyao, which she accepted. She then confessed her true thoughts to the emperor, resulting in both Jiang Yuyao and her fiancé being severely punished for deceiving the sovereign.
When her eldest brother was assassinated, she stayed on the sidelines, allowing him to suffer the loss of his right arm and consequently be denied the chance to sit the imperial examinations.
She turned a blind eye when her second brother fell into gambling, even purchasing a casino that pulled him deeper into ruin, letting him dig his own grave while she profited greatly.
When her third brother was poisoned, she no longer risked herself with antidotes and simply watched his martial prowess fade.
Her fiancé and brothers deeply regretted and pleaded on their knees for her forgiveness.
Nonetheless, Jiang Songyi was branded a cunning official.
Her fierce ally was an ironhearted commander of the imperial guard, holding an embroidered spring sword, loyally protecting her.
Even the nearly-dead crown prince unexpectedly sat up before death!
