Two best friends transmigrated into an angsty historical romance and started off by grabbing each other’s hair and brawling beside a lotus pond.
One was Lin Song, the wicked stepmother. The other was Shu Wan’er, the spoiled stepdaughter.
As they fought, they suddenly stopped at the same time:
“The sky covers the tiger?”
“The pagoda suppresses the river demon!”
Well, they’d got it wrong. They were on the same side!
In the original story, the scumbag Crown Prince used Shu Wan’er, leading to the entire general’s household being executed. Mother and daughter both met gruesome ends.
But now?
They played mortal enemies in public and clung to each other in private, teaming up to crush the Eastern Palace’s schemes.
The scumbag Crown Prince drugged someone and set a trap? They swapped it out for a pile of love letters and made him die of embarrassment in public.
He tried to frame them for colluding with the enemy and treason? They struck back and left his claim to the throne hanging by a thread.
Their doting general father had their backs, four handsome older brothers protected both their mother and their sister, and the wickedly charming Second Prince gave them a helping hand.
The story was supposed to end with the whole family wiped out, but the two friends turned it into a happy life of taking it easy, enjoying their good fortune, and getting payback on scumbags!
