[Historical setting with no transmigrators + face-slapping revenge + two powerful leads + doting husband + woman disguised as a man + household intrigue]
The worst deal Meng Huiyan ever made in her life was disguising herself as a man and working herself to the bone to support the ungrateful wolf she raised for the Fu family.
Fu Yanci passed the highest imperial examination and earned third place, then returned home with his fiancée, a noblewoman from an official family, and cast Meng aside like something worthless.
She left with a cold laugh, carrying the Fu family's IOUs. The moment she turned around, Ye Zhuoxiao, the Third Young Master of the Duke of Jingguo's household, fixed his gaze on her slender hands, which could tell real silver from counterfeit. “Brother Meng, how about helping me investigate cases?”
But why was this Brother Meng, fighting side by side with him, growing more and more captivating by the day? Third Young Master Ye began to suspect he had a thing for men. Fortunately, Heaven took pity on him and heard the young master's anguished inner thoughts, restoring Brother Meng to womanhood.
After entering the capital with the man who promised to “take responsibility for her,” Meng Huiyan caused an uproar throughout the city. The famously cold-faced young nobleman and even the imperial family doted on her. Third Young Master Ye, who was known for crushing the love of noble young ladies, stormed the palace to beg the emperor for an edict on her behalf. Even the empress dowager trembled as she touched the old scar on Meng's arm. “She's the benefactor I've been searching for these past eight years!” With the phoenix seal stamped down, an ordinary woman became an imperial county lady in an instant.
Just as County Lady Huiyan's fortunes were soaring and she and Third Young Master Ye were deeply in love, she was publicly exposed: “This county lady should have been a government slave!”
From the throne, the emperor watched Ye Zhuoxiao with a smile. “I won't interfere in my beloved consort's sister-in-law's affairs.”
See how the court's rising star, Lord Ye, and County Lady Huiyan, a master of finance, turn the tide, deliver face-slapping justice to their enemies, solve wrongful cases, and wed at last.
The writing is clear and the plot is not cliche.
