[Historical political intrigue + strong hero and heroine + face-slapping revenge + genuine wife-winning crematorium + second male lead rises to the top + 1v1 sweet romance, no angst]
When Su Yuwan first arrived at the Li family home, her future mother-in-law was bedridden and paralyzed, while her future sister-in-law hid trembling in a corner, wearing patched clothes with sleeves that stopped halfway up her arms.
The entire family of five lived in two dilapidated earthen huts. They barely had enough to eat, let alone the money Li Rong'an needed to sit for the imperial examinations.
For the sake of his promise that he would never let her down, Su Yuwan gave up her savings to fund his exams, managed the household, and cared for the whole family.
Three years later, Li Rong'an placed first in all three rounds of the imperial examinations and won the emperor's favor, becoming a rising star at court.
But then came the news that Li Rong'an was engaged to Commandery Princess Jiahe.
That day, dressed in fine red and jade and brimming with success, Li Rong'an said as if it were only natural, “Although we were engaged first, Commandery Princess Jiahe is of noble birth. The fact that she's willing to let you enter her household as a concubine is already a blessing. Don't make a scene and fail to appreciate it.”
Su Yuwan neither cried nor made a fuss. Calmly, she tore up their betrothal papers and tokens, and decisively ended the engagement.
Everyone waited to laugh at the foolish Su Yuwan, sure that without the Li family's protection, she would be trampled into the mud.
But in the end, it was Li Rong'an, who should have been destined for success, who met with utter ruin. He was even forced to kneel before the Su family home, repent, and beg Su Yuwan to forgive him.
But Su Yuwan, dressed in fine silks, didn't even spare him a glance.
“Li Rong'an, you're not even worthy of carrying my shoes.”
#You ignored me today. Tomorrow, you'll be out of my league!
This book is really good. It's a little different from those ancient novels in the past. The author's writing style is delicate and the plot is compact. It's worth reading. Friends who like ancient Chinese novels can rush without thinking. It's super good-looking. I like it very much💕
Very well written and beautiful.
The victim of a court battle, an ancient woman who was smart, courageous, independent and self-reliant, abandoned the scumbag man and found a prince. It was quite interesting.
It looked good, but the ending was a bit rushed. The score should be higher.
Not bad! I skipped through it and it was okay.
Very nice work worth recommending
It's so good that I watched it overnight, but it's a pity that there are no extras
It looks good, it looks good, it looks good, the rating is too low, please give the author a big boost!
It's a pretty good book. I didn't even plan to read it when I first looked at the ratings. It was really surprising.
It's very interesting to watch. It's more attractive to continue reading. The plot is also good. The rating of 6.7 Is indeed too low.
