Warning: Neither the heroine nor the male lead is a virgin. Her ex-husband is still alive and remains the one she loves most. Lots of mind games and political maneuvering. No romance in the main story.
Zhen Mi is reborn at the edge of despair.
The burning pain of the poisoned wine she drank in her previous life still lingers in her throat. Now she is a prisoner of the Cao family, facing Cao Pi, the man who once imprisoned her deep in the palace, bound to her by love and hatred. In her previous life, she was a plum blossom blooming in the snow, resisting with unyielding pride, only to die with her name in disgrace while her husband, Yuan Xi, met a tragic end. This time, she hides her sharp edges and crawls through the dust, all to secure a chance for Yuan Xi to survive.
But fate's net has already drawn tight. Cao Pi's hawk-like gaze sees through her vulnerability, and the calluses on his fingertips press against her restraint. The young heir's burning passion and obsession spread like wildfire. Cao Zhi's Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River lies in the future, yet even now he lets his admiration for her show. Cao Cao's gaze is deep and unfathomable, concealing a warlord's calculations and scrutiny.
The moment she clutches the hem of Cao Pi's robe, she knows this game, where they wager their lives, has begun. Will she keep playing the obedient prey, looking for a chance to protect those from her past under Cao Pi's control? Or will she find another path to survival through Cao Zhi's tenderness and Cao Cao's deliberations?
Reborn, she must break free of the shackles of her previous life while treading carefully through the vortex surrounding the Cao father and son. Love, hate, anger, and obsession are all blades; every tear hides a calculation, and every bow could mean life or death. Zhen Mi knows that in these troubled times, only by seeing through people's hearts and daring to stake her own can she rewrite the fate of the tragic song of the Goddess of the Luo River.
P.S. The history is wilder than wild, so don't take it seriously. This is pure self-indulgent fun.
The heroine is at the level of a military advisor, but she feels that she is still suppressed in troubled times. She has been dealing with various forces and does not have much real power. 🤔🤔🤔
Although I didn't quite understand it, I still admired the scheming and forbearance in the article.
The setting and writing are pretty good, and the plot develops smoothly. However, if there are a lot of explanations in the text, it feels like I'm reading a literary review 🤔, which gives me a strange feeling.
