Merchant Daughter's Scheme: The Powerful Minister's Pawn (54 episodes) - AllShorts

After her father's death, merchant daughter Su Jinli is coerced by the clan elders to surrender power. Tearing up her marriage contract right in the hall, she strikes back step by step with her extraordinary business acumen. To uncover the truth behind the wrongful death of her mother, she joins forces with Rong Jin, Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, exposing a monstrous conspiracy where censors, powerful courtiers, and the Prince Regent colluded with foreign enemies to frame the Rong family. From reclaiming power in the ancestral hall to clashing at the imperial court, from commercial warfare over salt permits to the siege by the Northern Di, she treats trade routes as her chessboard and human hearts as her chips. Ultimately toppling the corrupt officials, she clears her mother's name, is granted the title of Commandery Princess of Anguo, and takes charge of the empire's imperial merchants. Combining commerce and the rule of law, they assist a wise sovereign and usher in a golden era.
