Sheng Zhilan, the third daughter of the Sheng family, was extraordinary from the moment she was born.
She was the daughter of Lin, Sheng Hong's beloved concubine, and flowers bloomed throughout the courtyard on the day of her birth.
From then on, she was raised by Old Madam Sheng, the only daughter of the Marquis of Yongyi, and became the most cherished young lady in the entire Sheng family.
His Highness Prince Jin, Zhao Yan, was born into the imperial clan and had everything from the moment he was born.
But when he was three, it was all taken from him. His father, who had protected him, and his mother, who had cherished him, both perished in the struggle for imperial power.
He fell ill.
Until he met his Goddess of Flowers.
Original protagonists for The Story of Minglan. The heroine has a golden finger, but not much of one. The hero is ill.
The main plot centers on the heroine and won't focus too much on Molan and Lin Qinshuang. If that bothers you, this story isn't for you. Some issues mentioned in the reviews have been revised, though the result may still fall short.
I won't arbitrarily vilify anyone. As the story develops, the original characters' fates will change, including the marriages of the three Sheng sisters: Molan will marry an original character, Minglan will marry He Hongwen, and Rulan will marry Wen Yanjing.
Since the heroine was raised by her grandmother, she is more rational by nature and won't lavish unconditional affection on someone just because they're family.
As for Lin Qinshuang, she understands the hardships her mother faces and knows her mother isn't a good person, but she attributes this to society's patriarchal and imperial power structures, not to women themselves.
As for Molan, she'd rather teach her to make better choices than make herself look good by putting her sister down.
In short, if you're looking for a wish-fulfillment romance where everyone dotes on the heroine, this story probably isn't for you.
Just another lucky version of "Minglan"... What am I expecting?
Very nice. . [Blowing kiss]
Chinese people don't lie to Chinese people. I generally don't have the patience to read. But this book succeeded. It attracted me and made me want to read more.
