Synopsis

[Clever, sunny little rabbit] + [Scheming, calculating big bad wolf] + [True heiress and fake heir] + [Sisters who love each other]

Song Zhixi, the Hou Manor’s true-born daughter, was switched at birth and grew up among the common folk for eighteen years. To find out what happened to her adoptive parents, she heads north to uncover the truth about her origins.

Everyone says Marquis Dingyuan and his wife are a perfectly matched couple, and that all three of their children are legitimate. Yet the Marquis keeps his childhood sweetheart and cousin at the manor, allowing her to lord it over his legitimate daughter...

Shen Ciyan: He needs love, and Song Zhixi has plenty to give. He wants her to love only him.

“You received my mother’s love growing up. You owe it back to me. It’s not enough, either. I want interest.”

The Marchioness: She’s done with being blinded by love and is embracing the young man she once loved again.

Younger sister: Have you ever considered that we might both be true-born daughters?

Younger brother: You were raised as a spoiled fake heir, a foil to others. Big sister will help you turn things around.

Su Boyan: He once vowed they would spend their lives together, but alas, the dazzling world soon caught his eye. After arriving in the capital, it didn’t take much for someone to flirt with him and sway his heart.

Everyone assumes Song Zhixi will choose a noble family of equal standing, but she insists on marrying a frail scholar. Only later does she discover that the scholar’s identity is anything but ordinary.

Seeking High-Quality Historical Romance, No Transmigration, Rebirth, or System

I like food, palace intrigue, the imperial examinations, political schemes, and crime-solving. On Tomato, I’ve read The Strongest Female Grand Secretary Rises Against the Odds; for palace intrigue, Zhaohua Weiyang, Palace Willows, and Deep Palace Strategy: The Tale of Qingzhi; for food, Chang’an Snack Shop (I can’t remember if it was on Tomato).

I Declare Lu Songli the Top Female Schemer in Tomato Fiction

Looking for books like After the Marriage Swap, the Cannon-Fodder Original Wife Gets a Happy Ending with the Young General. I love stories with a smart heroine who has both brains and tactics. It’s even rarer to find a capable second male lead who isn’t made stupid or forced into the plot. In the end, the person who understands you best is your enemy.
