[Court intrigue + clear-headed heroine + gentle powerful official + devoted couple]
Xiao Wuwan only wants to live a carefree life, savoring good food and traveling the world as a wealthy heiress.
But Gongsun Ling sets up a school for her so she can see the hardships ordinary people face and learn to care about the realm.
He even sends her into the palace to bring down the chancellor.
At first, she pins him against the wall. “Mr. Gongsun, do you like me?”
Years later, she breaks free of his grasp. “Gongsun Ling, are you doing this to avenge your mother’s murder, or because you truly care about the realm?”
She grows into the person he once hoped she would become,
but now she wants nothing to do with him.
Women shouldn’t be confined by romance.
My lord, shouldn’t you take a moment to reflect?
If you don’t lose your mind soon, you’ll be chasing your wife all the way to the crematorium.
P.S. The male lead is very gentle early on, so the sweetness is all in the subtle hints.
Later, things get much more direct.
The political intrigue is intricately plotted, with foreshadowing in every chapter.
The author has something to say: 1️⃣Although there is time travel, it is only to explain the Buddhist psychology of the heroine in the early stage (dynasties will be destroyed anyway, wars and palace battles have nothing to do with me) 2️⃣Sometimes the ancients were better at living than us (I will always love the city life of the Song Dynasty) 3️⃣Male characters: Gongsun Ling did not dare to love the heroine before the end of the conspiracy (so it is not a cool novel) but he likes her with a sense of boundaries. He is not a father figure, but it makes the heroine much better! Chasing his wife at the crematorium later, super sweet! Male supporting actors: Ning's uncle, Xie Siyuan, and Li Jingle are all very charming (so I gave some space in the early stage and will explain it later!) I will speed up and work very hard on it. I won't lose money if I invest in it!
The author seems to be still changing the order of the article 😂 The pace is slow. Please follow it every day and give it some support. The introduction is quite interesting and there is a lot of foreshadowing in the early stage. I am patient enough to read through to the end. I like it very much. Come on for more. It's really beautiful, with lots of details and descriptions, very poignant, the kind of foreshadowing that comes later: Damn it, that's it! And there are many knowledge points about the Song Dynasty. The author may write food articles in the future. The food mentioned is very graphic. I like the heroine design, it's very real, and I currently like the second male lead, who has a strong teenage vibe
What I want to say is what Song Weizong said above. As long as the author can reveal all the foreshadowing later on, it will definitely be worth reading. The romance line is so delicate... It's been a long time since I read a book with a gentle male protagonist. The last time I had the patience to read it was Guan He's Notes... It's not a cool article, so I'll give the author some help and update soon~
