(Two equally formidable generals + Mutual devotion + Infrastructure development + Alternate-history period romance)
Jiang Li, the legitimate eldest daughter of the Minister of Works, is disliked by her stepmother and unloved by her father. But it doesn’t matter. She grabs her spear, sneaks out of the house, earns military honors, and establishes herself on her own.
“His Majesty personally appointed me a first-rank official. We are sovereign and subject before father and daughter, so why don’t you and Father know to pay your respects?”
Chu Zhaoyu, the war god of the Qing Dynasty, favors Jiang Li so openly that no one can explain why.
“I pretended to be a gentleman, but ended up becoming a real general.”
Jiang Li’s younger half-sister, Jiang Yanjiu, is a spoiled, overbearing young lady who is always at odds with her. But after falling into the water for some reason, her personality changes completely. She follows Jiang Li around, calling her “Elder Sister” every other breath, and recites the multiplication table under her breath while making calculations. Then someone walks by and, after a long pause, writes down an equation... Jiang Yanjiu turns around and finds the person strangely familiar... Oh! Isn’t that so-and-so? How did they end up here too?
