Synopsis

[A “profound” emperor who loves silly storybooks vs a purehearted noblewoman with astonishing martial skills]

Lu Jiu was the only girl of her generation in the Duke of Zhenguo's household. Her parents and two older brothers had spoiled her rotten since childhood. Unfortunately, she lost her head over a handsome face and married the pitiful, unloved Fifth Prince, Pei Qi. The poisonous beauties in his harem made her suffer a difficult labor, and she died.

Her soul did not disperse after death. Instead, it lingered by Pei Qi's side. Burning with resentment, she planned to cultivate into a vengeful ghost and kill them all! But before she could do anything, Pei Qi died for love?!

People often said Pei Qi was a madman and a tyrant. Even a tiger would not eat its cubs, yet he showed no mercy to his own family and slaughtered his own son.

Pei Qi had few ambitions in life. His first favorite thing was cuddling up to his wife, and his second was reading storybooks. Such simple wishes should have been easy to fulfill, but he could never have his way. From the moment he was forced onto the throne, everything changed! They wanted power? Fine, he gave it to them. They wanted a person? Fine, he offered himself. All he asked in return was that they keep his wife safe and well. In the end, they drove her to her death. From then on, the evil in Pei Qi's heart was unleashed. He would make the whole world pay for her, himself included.

At the moment of his death, Pei Qi smiled with satisfaction. “Qingqing, I've come to find you.”

Watching from above, Lu Jiu began to fade away too. “Maybe don't. You're kind of terrifying now.”

(The male lead wasn't faithful in his previous life, for a reason. If that's not for you, feel free to leave. He's faithful in this life. The female lead isn't a strong, independent heroine! Also, the author's writing isn't great, so please don't insult me. I'm too sensitive to take it!!!)

Does Tomato Really Have No Real Strong Female-Led Novels?!

I want a career-focused, steadily leveling-up female lead who's strong enough to crush everyone. Why does the male lead have to be stronger than her in a strong female lead story??? If male-oriented novels can have a male lead focused on his career with beautiful women flocking around him, why can't a female-oriented novel have a female lead focused on getting stronger, with handsome men throwing themselves at her?
