Synopsis

[Transmigrate into a book + everyone’s favorite + devoted couple + putting scumbags in their place + no mistresses or misunderstandings + everyone speaks their mind]

Jiang Yuzhu transmigrated into a book, becoming the ill-fated first wife of Xie Zhao, the male lead of A Great Chancellor.

From the start, she was handed a disaster: the original Jiang Yuzhu was on her way to have an affair, set up by her own eldest brother.

According to the original story, after sleeping with a scumbag, Jiang Yuzhu would contract a filthy disease and die young, consumed by depression.

The Jiang family, who loved their daughters and younger sisters more than life itself, would go mad with grief. In the end, they would offend the new emperor and be executed to the last member.

For decades afterward, Xie Zhao would never marry again, nor would any woman be by his side. He would serve the new emperor, reform the imperial examinations, build waterworks, and ultimately become a great chancellor whose name would go down in history.

Later generations would mourn him with sighs, praising Chancellor Xie’s devotion while lamenting that he had loved the wrong woman. Jiang Yuzhu, the daughter of a treacherous minister, had been unfaithful, a stain on his reputation that could never be washed away.

…

Book fan Jiang Yuzhu: Xie Zhao is cold-hearted and never remarried because he didn’t want the hassle! They were married for three years and never even consummated the marriage. Maybe he just couldn’t perform.

Fan A: The man was busy with his career and had no time for romance. Jiang Yuzhu was indisputably a fickle woman. I see your account name matches Chancellor Xie’s first wife, so you’re probably just as licentious!

After the other person made it personal, Jiang Yuzhu flew into a rage and wrote a long post to fire back. And then she transmigrated into the book.

The scumbag waiting for a secret rendezvous had better watch out. Jiang Yuzhu had her stick ready. She was going to shut the door and beat the dog!

As for the male lead, who was focused entirely on his career, Jiang Yuzhu figured they could just stay out of each other’s way.

He could handle his endless affairs of state while she slacked off and went chicken-catching. Once Xie Zhao had made a name for himself, she’d follow along and claim the title of official’s wife, then keep leading the Jiang family in throwing their weight around.

But later… Jiang Yuzhu rubbed her aching waist. Wasn’t the male lead supposed to be aloof and uninterested in women?

Please Recommend Stories Where the Heroine Transmigrates into a Book as the Villainess and Doesn't Follow the Plot!!

I absolutely don’t want stories where the heroine has to follow the original plot. If she transmigrates into a supporting female character and has to stick to the plot, she can’t do this or that, and might even get punished by the System if she does. It feels so frustrating. So I’m looking for stories where she doesn’t follow the plot.

The female lead is strong-willed and fiercely protective of her family. While her family members are eccentric, they adhere to a moral bottom line: "I won't offend others unless they offend me." The male lead is also excellent, exactly my type. As a seasoned bookworm, I highly recommend him.

The male and female leads are quite likable, and the female leads are all quite cute too, haha.

It was pretty good. Although some plot points were illogical, the female lead's skills felt a bit forced, and the character development between the male and female leads became somewhat inconsistent later on… It seemed like the author was rushing to finish the work… But at least the story is complete, it has a happy ending, and I enjoyed reading it.

The book is engaging from beginning to end, with a smooth writing style. The female lead is eloquent, has a captivating presence, and truly embodies the villain.

A good read, with a humorous writing style and a substantial, well-paced plot. The author clearly put a lot of effort into it. Both the male and female leads are highly intelligent, and the plot unfolds gradually, starting with a small incident and intricately linking clues to the villain's involvement. It's a very exciting and funny book. ★★★★★★★★★★

It's really good, not a single dull moment. The female lead is very capable and doesn't get cocky about her transmigration into the book. It's just a pity there weren't any extra chapters about the emperor and the pink butterfly 🥺

I've been following the quick transmigration genre all year, and I've read almost all of them on various platforms. Hey, I suddenly saw this synopsis and I couldn't put it down. It's hilarious! The writing is good, witty and humorous, both the male and female leads are virgins, I love their personalities, and the plot is coherent. I'm a seasoned bookworm, and I never expected to find such a good book. The author is incredibly talented!
