Synopsis

[The rating has only just been posted and will rise. Corrupt Jia Mansion + revenge]

Lin Daiyu is married off to the fearsome Prince of War. On the day she returns to her family home, she opens her dowry boxes and puts them in their place. From then on, she’ll repay the Rongguo Mansion tenfold for everything it owes her.

Wary of his eldest legitimate son, Prince Jing, whose military achievements have made him too powerful, the emperor invokes an alleged astrological incompatibility to replace the Northern Marquis’s daughter, who was meant to marry Prince Jing, with Lin Daiyu, daughter of a former salt commissioner. Everyone in the city knows the “God of Slaughter” prince as lecherous and brutal. The Rongguo Mansion assumes it has sent a sickly girl into a death trap.

Daiyu, for her part, sees the Rongguo Mansion for what it is: the family has been greedily swallowing up the Lin family’s wealth for generations, the “tonics” she has taken for years are actually slow-acting poison, and even the attendants Grandmother Jia assigned to her are spies.

The Rongguo Mansion thinks she is weak and easy to bully, but she tears away its facade with her own hands: exposing the fake dowry in front of Prince Jing, forcing Madam Wang to confess and sign her name in public, and using Jia Lian to strike back at the entire Rongguo Mansion.

Grandmother Jia’s favoritism, Madam Wang’s attempts on her life, Baochai’s schemes, Yuanchun’s callousness, the emperor’s suspicions, and the plans of Noble Consort Wu and her son: the couple overcome them all, one by one.

From the day her marriage was switched, everyone thought she was a pawn. But when she finally made her move, they were the ones who lost the whole game.

It was so satisfying to read, especially the male lead's domineering protection of his wife. Daiyu also completely woke up and used her intelligence in the right way. There were many foreshadowing elements, and it resolved many of the unresolved issues from the original novel. I particularly enjoyed watching the punishment of Xiren, as I hated Xiren and Baochai the most in the original story.

Congratulations on your new novel! I've read all of your previous Dream of the Red Chamber novels, but this one is different. Daiyu is still an orphan living in the Rongguo Mansion, and Jia Baoyu is going to marry Xue Baochai. The background seems very stifling, but because she's going to marry a prince, it's actually quite satisfying—more satisfying than any of your previous works.

I only found out when I scrolled through the homepage that the author had finished one book and started a new one. I've already caught up with it; it's still a leisurely and unhurried story with a fast-paced plot, making it a very enjoyable read. Five stars is definitely deserved!

Daiyu is bold in love and hate, and each character is written very vividly, very well! 👍👍👍

The strength of this book lies mainly in its multi-person storyline, the development and fates of its various characters. The romantic subplot between Daiyu and the male protagonist isn't particularly long, and while it's not overly sweet, it's not unsweet either (what am I saying, SOS).

I love this passage: "The princess reached out and plucked a small branch of crabapple blossoms, placing it in Daiyu's hair, and then said, 'During my years in Western Qiang, I learned one thing—the only person you can truly rely on in this world is yourself. But later I also understood another thing—if someone is willing to let you rely on them, you don't have to force yourself to push them away.' One must rely on oneself."

I declare this to be the most satisfying fanfiction featuring Daiyu as the protagonist I've read this year. Both the male and female leads' actions, thoughts, and ideas are exactly to my liking. In previous Dream of the Red Chamber fanfics, the protagonists, despite having the status and ability to retaliate, either resort to verbal attacks or endure in silence due to so-called filial piety…

I've read all of the author's other works, so I followed this one. I think it's very well written, so I give it a thumbs up.

This is absolutely fantastic! I love all the Dream of the Red Chamber fanfiction written by this author. I feel the author has a solid literary foundation; the writing style is very mature. Moreover, the author's likes and dislikes of the characters in Dream of the Red Chamber are exactly the same as mine. Every time I read this author's books, I feel that this is the kind of life Daiyu should have. Please keep updating, author!
