Spoiled and mad critic of powerful ministers

[A charming and clear-headed businesswoman * A ruthless and innocent powerful minister] (Brother dies, sister-in-law takes over)
In her past life, Shen Qiongju eloped to become another man's concubine after becoming a widow, and eventually died at the hands of her brother-in-law; in this life, she is determined to remain a widow, believing that the title of "eldest sister-in-law" is a get-out-of-jail-free card, but it turns out to be her biggest trouble.
The young Prime Minister Pei asked candidly, "Would you be my wife, sister-in-law?"
Shen Qiongju was so frightened that she fled south overnight.
Six months later, in a small pavilion in Jiangnan, Shen Qiongju was smiling as two handsome young male prostitutes poured wine for her.
Pei Zhihui, dressed in an official robe, arrived through the rain, his eyes brimming with a long-suppressed madness. "So, my sister-in-law likes this kind of gentle and considerate man... Zhihui can do that too."
That night, the crimson official robe, a symbol of power, lay disheveled on the ground. A burning palm gripped her slender waist, and a voice was hoarse:
My sister-in-law taught me that one should repay kindness. Now, I've come to ask for that repayment.
Having witnessed his elder brother's miraculous return to life, Pei Zhihui shielded his sister-in-law, dressed in her wedding gown, behind him, his eyes filled with an unprecedented stubbornness.
"Brother, sister-in-law is mine now."
