Surrogate for Sister: The Illegitimate Daughter's Rise Plot:

Ye Wantang, an illegitimate daughter, has been treated as a "stepping stone" by her legitimate sister Ye Zhaoning since childhood. After her mother's early death, she even becomes a "breeding tool" for the marquis' mansion—Ye Zhaoning is to marry Gu Tingshen, the son of the Prince of Jing, but cannot bear children due to a childhood illness, so she plots to let Wantang "consummate the marriage" in her place to have a child. Wantang thinks she will be sent to the countryside to fend for herself after giving birth, but she never expects Gu Tingshen to have long seen through Ye Zhaoning's hypocrisy and instead be moved by her tenacity and kindness, quietly protecting her. Facing Ye Zhaoning's relentless persecution (stealing the child, smearing her reputation) and Gu Tingshen's secret support, Wantang decides to stop being a pawn. With her intelligence, she resolves the layers of conspiracies between the marquis' mansion and the prince's mansion, redresses her mother's past injustice, and even rises from a "surrogate illegitimate daughter" to the "rightful princess" in Gu Tingshen's heart, rewriting her manipulated fate with her own strength.
