[The second male lead takes the spotlight + pure historical romance + revenge + a battle among suitors + a groveling ex + play the pig to eat the tiger]
(Reading guide: A slow-burn story, not a wish-fulfillment romp. The heroine is a hardworking, growing character with no rebirth, transmigration, or golden finger. The male lead is scheming and sharp-tongued at first, but later gets his comeuppance. He loves her but cannot have her. The heroine has a hard time early on, so please skip this if that bothers you.)
To save her beloved family member, Shen Yunling sought help at the gates of the Pei family, the richest household in Bingzhou.
The Pei family matriarch promised to help as long as Shen married into the family.
As a mute girl from a humble family, she was looked down on by her mother-in-law, who made things difficult for her at every turn.
Her husband was convinced she was scheming to climb the social ladder. He despised her and treated her with indifference.
It didn’t matter. She had never planned to cling to the Pei household, much less expected to live in harmony with her husband. Her heart was not in the family home, but in a wider world.
Using a great fire as cover, she faked her death and escaped, only to unexpectedly become the emperor’s beloved Pearl Princess. Behind the mystery of her birth lay a blood feud.
She leapt from a family home into the imperial palace, seeking only to avenge her birth mother.
She had no interest in love, yet somehow caught the eye of Bo Xihan, the prince of Loulan. He cornered her against a wall. “Woman, become my princess consort!”
Even the heir to the Marquis of Yongan, who had once helped her, entered the palace for her sake. “I’ve been in love with you for a long time. Could you give me a chance?”
As she fretted over how to get rid of the two of them, her cold-hearted former husband slipped into her bedchamber at night and pinned her beneath the hibiscus curtains, his eyes red as he asked, “You can only ever be my wife. Who else do you think you can marry?”
Shen Yunling curled her red lips into a mocking smile. “What a joke. You were the one who gave me the divorce papers. What does it matter to you if I marry again?”
Pei Zheng died, and I still felt a little uncomfortable. Although her hatred towards Manman was due to a misunderstanding, the damage was indeed caused, but I also felt his repentance in the author's writing. If he followed the conventional routine, he could have a happy ending, hahaha. The author has done a great job in portraying Man Man. He is clear-headed, able to understand things clearly, and dares to love and hate. I can't really explain his relationship with Lu Jin'an. I always feel that something is missing and he can't give good suggestions. However, this book is finished and the chapter has been turned over. See you in the next one! I hope the author will get better and better! [Love]
Very well written, the heroine quickly counterattacks
It's good-looking, but I rarely write reviews. Write a review and support the author. Come on come on!
I really like the heroine, she is independent, not pretentious or pretentious. I really like Xiao Lu, he is principled, polite and courteous. I hope the heroine can be with Xiao Lu.
It's a pretty good book. Xiao Shen Xiaolu is the kind of strong, peaceful person who doesn't show off his anger.
Why are there so many unfinished books? See half and leave half!
Very nice! Come on, author!
The writing is really good, the writing is smooth and the plot is compact.
Looks good, good people are rewarded!
Pretty good! The male protagonist's prejudice against the female protagonist is understandable, but I don't understand the setting that he often goes to the flower house and still keeps himself clean [laughs]
