A Difficult Letter to Unwrite is a political intrigue novel blending historical romance with a woman’s journey of growth. The story begins with a shocking explosion: on the very day Shen Zhiyi, who has transmigrated into the role of a discarded princess consort in a tragic romance, receives an imperial decree ordering her death, she blows up the prince’s residence and flings her divorce papers in the face of Xiao Jue, the famed God of War. From then on, branded a “mad beauty,” she forges an astonishing path through the siege of feudal tradition.
Restaurants, newspapers, schools for girls... With her modern ideas, she builds a business empire and becomes the richest woman in the dynasty. Just as the prince who once cast her aside like trash kneels in the snow, red-eyed, offering 108 letters of repentance and begging her to reconsider, an even greater conspiracy quietly unfolds. The secret poison “Zhuyin” emerges in the southern borderlands, the shadow of a puppet emperor looms over the court, the Grand Princess of Anyang risks everything to break the deadlock, and the Crown Princess harbors sinister designs. As the realm teeters on the brink of collapse, Shen Zhiyi and Xiao Jue fight side by side. From trying to kill each other to falling in love, from mistrust to entrusting their lives to one another, they ultimately wash away the corruption in a torrent of blood and usher in an age of prosperity.
