The General’s Poisoned Daughter
by Celine Zhang"They poisoned her for five years and left her to rot in the dark. They never expected her to wake up with teeth."
When a fatal accident cuts short her modern life, an elite toxicologist opens her eyes inside the fragile, disgraced body of Shen Yuexin, the discarded firstborn daughter of the Great Liang Dynasty’s most feared general. In this cutthroat court, everyone treats her as an ugly, dying invalid who smells of decay and disgrace. Her arrogant fiancé, the Crown Prince, breaks their betrothal to cavort with her half-sister. Her sweet-talking stepmother smiles while spoon-feeding venom into her morning broth. The entire capital is waiting for her to quietly choke on her own blood. Too bad for them, Yuexin knows the chemical footprint of mercury and swamp lily on sight. And she isn't interested in forgiveness, she’s interested in an audit. Enter Xiao Yichen. Underestimated, unfavored, and dismissed as the "invisible" prince, he hides a ruthless strategic mind behind cold silence and dark eyes. When he catches Yuexin stealing rare medicinal roots from the imperial gardens, and she catches him manipulating court shadows, a dangerous spark ignites. What starts as a pragmatic alliance to dissolve her engagement and expose a treacherous coup quickly derails into something electric and obsessive. Between whispered banter over lethal herbs, nights trapped in freezing storehouses, and blood-soaked palace corridors, Yichen realizes the quiet prince who turned his heart to stone has met his undoing. He doesn't care about the throne. He wants the woman who tore an entire dynasty apart with a silver needle. And heaven help anyone who dares draw a blade against her.
