Three years into their marriage, Yu Zhao is still a virgin. On their wedding night, her husband, red-eyed with remorse, confessed that he was impotent and begged her to keep it a secret.
Yu Zhao held no grudge and devoted herself to being a good wife, because the Yu family had fallen into decline and he had married her as promised.
Her mother-in-law made things difficult for her, her sister-in-law called her a barren hen, and the world pitied her. Still, she kept the marriage running seamlessly.
It was only when she caught her husband sneaking off to tryst with someone in a secret chamber that she learned his supposed impotence was really a vow of chastity for his lover.
Yu Zhao withdrew her heart, drained her in-laws’ wealth, rescued disaster victims in the snow, and brought relief to the people. She developed cement, made gunpowder, rushed to clear the capital’s waterways, rebuilt the border passes, drew a high-definition map of the realm, and redirected southern water north. Soon, her name was known throughout the land.
Song Chenyuan, a man with power over the entire court, pulled her into his arms with domineering possessiveness. “You’re mine!”
Yu Zhao turned around and tried to blow him to pieces.
But the man only sniffled tearfully. “You were my wife. In our past life, you left me lovesick to the bone. You owe me in this life.”
Yu Zhao: ...What?
Her former husband regretted everything and knelt to beg for reconciliation. Song Chenyuan gave him a faintly amused look. “If you dare covet your aunt, you can get off the family register.”
The outline and rhythm of the story are good. There are some minor points where the logic is not consistent, but the flaws are not concealed. If the details and writing were more perfect, it would have scored 9.5 Or above. Even so, it is still better than many 9-point articles.
It can be seen that after the heroine traveled through time and was reborn, how could she forget her old relationship with the Duke's brother-in-law after knowing her previous life? It's a pity that the heroine doesn't have much ability and may rely on the help of the Duke's influence. After searching for the ending, fortunately, the heroine used some modern knowledge to develop water conservancy weapons, and consolidated the court to serve the country and the people. The relationship between men and women was also well written. She ventured back to modern times for a man, and when her body was young, she returned to ancient times through orbit. After all, she cared about her children and her country.
It's okay. I'm actually looking forward to knowing where the main characters will go in the end, but after listening to nearly 60 chapters, I suddenly lost the energy to continue listening. I've recently entered a period of book listening burnout, and I rarely encounter particularly interesting and interesting stories.
I like this book, not too wordy. Like to watch.
It's very readable, and the content is superb despite its short length.
I really like this rhythm!
There is no nonsense, the context is clear, and the article is a bit sadistic. It is very interesting!
The novel is well written and the characters are clear and distinct.
