The Herb-Scented Young Widow: Her Husband, Killed in Battle, Has Returned

After transmigrating, Liu Susu, the only daughter of a family of traditional Chinese physicians, becomes a young widow in Ning Tong Village.

At home, her mother-in-law bullies her. Outside, vicious men lust after her. Just as she's caught between a rock and a hard place, her supposed husband, who was rumored to have died on the battlefield, returns.

With a cold gaze and a sword in hand, the man says in a voice like jade: “Is this how you treat my wife when I'm away?”

The once-poor wife of General Shen has come to the capital.

They say she's plain and easy to bully, and everyone is waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

Who could have imagined that ever since Madam Shen arrived, noblemen and princes have been flocking to the Shen residence, all hoping to see her in person?

The proud, aloof Minister Yu lowers his head and pleads: “Madam Shen, please save my life. My elderly mother will only eat the food you make.”

The dignified, taciturn Prince Mu looks distraught: “If you can save my beloved consort, I'll give you my entire fortune.”

Rumor has it that the emperor himself once offered her half his kingdom, only for Madam Shen to politely decline: “My husband gets jealous easily. I must hurry home.”
