Once a top secret agent, Pei Nianjun transmigrates into the body of a downtrodden wife in a marquis's household. She schemes to drug her husband, but he would rather sleep with a maid than touch her. Pei Nianjun gives the scumbag two slaps instead and declares, “I want a divorce!”
The whole capital laughs at her: A woman who's been cast aside is finished for life.
Pei Nianjun laughs. “Who says I'm finished?”
After divorcing him and leaving the household, she joins her father on campaign and slays enemies on the battlefield, turning the tide of the war single-handedly.
The emperor personally bestows on her the title of Protector of the Nation. Her rank rivals that of a duke, and every court official must bow when they see her.
Once, everyone despised her. Now, everyone adores her.
So many suitors come seeking her hand that the threshold of the Pei family home is nearly worn down. Xie Changgeng regrets everything too, arriving at her door in tears to say he'd been blind back then.
Pei Nianjun looks down at him and smiles. “You were blind, that's true. But now, you're not even worthy to hold my shoes.”
Behind her, the legendary Ninth Prince, whose power towers over the court and whom no woman in the land could ever hope to win over, strolls up and naturally puts an arm around her shoulders. In a “wounded” tone, he says, “You promised we'd marry once the war was over, my lady. When are you going to make me your husband?”
[Household intrigue and face-slapping + military honors and noble title + scumbag's road to ruin + adored prince humbly begging for her hand] She takes down scumbags with satisfying flair in the first half, then finds success in both her career and love. A power fantasy with a strong heroine: a sure bet!
It looks good. The author's writing style is good and well written. I will follow it.
I have read a lot of articles about He Lihou. The heroine in this book has a great plot and the career line is interesting.
The main heroine is a cool novel, the writing style is very good, it is easy to read and enjoyable to watch.
This ancient Chinese novel is so to my liking. Many of the plot settings are very new and fit the characters. It's a good text.
The heroine's character is too lovable. She should fight back and take action directly. She doesn't feel aggrieved. She looks good.
