Synopsis

Female Lead (Transmigration, Funny, Clear-Headed) + Male Lead in the Embroidered Uniform Guard (Jealous, Gentle, Secretly Sultry, Scheming)

After being born into a new body, Xie Yang enjoyed a smooth and easy life in ancient times for fifteen years. Then, through sheer bad luck, she was mistakenly arrested during an investigation by the Embroidered Uniform Guard and taken back to the imperial prison. To get out safely, she threw caution to the wind, grabbed Gu Huaisheng by the belt, and threatened him into taking her out of the Northern Garrison Command.

She thought they would never cross paths again after she got out, but it turned out he was the man the Emperor had chosen for her in an arranged marriage. So she married him, telling herself she would simply treat him like a superior at work.

She had always thought all members of the Embroidered Uniform Guard were violent and cruel, but little by little, she began to feel that her husband was different.

Because of rumors and misunderstandings, Xie Yang was convinced he was either impotent or attracted to men, so she avoided that sort of thing throughout their marriage. When he later learned the truth, he gritted his teeth in anger, pinned her wrist, and trapped her beneath him. “Rather than trusting rumors, why don’t you verify it for yourself, my lady?”

[Before You Read]

1. This is a fictional setting, so please don’t nitpick the historical details.

2. One-on-one romance, comedy, marriage first and love later, with feelings growing over time. It’s a sweet romance.

3. Any medical information in the story is fictional. Please don’t use it as a reference.

4. This is not a story about a strong female lead.

5. There are lots of fictional elements in this setting, so please don’t be mean. Thanks~

Here's what I'm looking for: when the original heroine is transmigrated into a novel, don't make her a sanctimonious white lotus just to make the transmigrator look good. I hope the romance in the story is harmonious, without scheming and backstabbing. The transmigrator into the novel's supporting female character, who is the protagonist, should be smart, and the villain shouldn't turn evil. For example, The Guide to Capturing a Black Lotus.

Highly recommended! The male and female leads have an arranged marriage that blossoms into love, and both are considered virgins! I disliked the female lead constantly mentioning her past relationship with her boyfriend in modern times! It felt like she was betraying the male lead's chastity! However, the female lead is truly blessed!

It's a good read. The author's writing style is the kind that unfolds in a gentle, flowing manner, which I personally quite like.

It's a good read. The plot flows smoothly, the content is detailed and the writing is excellent. The emotions between the male and female leads are natural and fluid, and they have great conversational skills, which I appreciate. It's just a bit short. Keep up the good work, author!

It was worth the effort of searching high and low; I was captivated after just three or four chapters. The author is incredibly meticulous, providing annotations for every potentially controversial or unclear passage. With excellent writing and a thoughtful author, this novel is sure to be a hit!

It's really good, and the ending is a happy one. I didn't expect the author to write a side story about Dongqing. It's so sweet and I love it. It's a rare treat for someone like me who likes to ship side couples. I was also very reluctant to see the story end, so I give the ending a five-star rating. I hope the author continues to write even better new works - ̗̀ ෆ( ˶'ᵕ'˶)ෆ ̖́-.

The author put a lot of effort into this work; it's clear they did their research thoroughly. The Imperial Guards are unlike any other; they're fleshed out, like sons of ordinary people, just like soldiers in modern life. The female lead is very happy, surrounded by a loving and devoted family—a simple yet unique life.

The writing style is light and humorous, the plot is fast-paced, and it combines sweet slice-of-life moments with the tension of palace intrigue and family power struggles. The interactions are fun, and the romance is naturally sweet. The author cleverly blends modern thinking with an ancient setting, resulting in a dense barrage of jokes and a light and enjoyable reading experience. Highly recommended!

The later parts are quite sweet, and the beginning is alright too. It's just that the female lead keeps imagining the male lead is gay, which makes you want to quit a bit. Fortunately, it gets better after chapter 51 and the famous scene in the synopsis. After that, it's all sweet ('▽').

It's a good read, the writing is good, and the plot is very engaging, not the clichéd love triangle or jealousy trope. ❌ There's a touch of warmth in the case. 🥰
