[May the auspicious omens be spared]
Sun Ning, an ordinary college student, laughed herself unconscious while watching the epic “The New Three Kingdoms.” When she opened her eyes again, she discovered she’d transmigrated into Sun Ren, the favorite maid of Sun Shangxiang, the princess of Eastern Wu.
The Records of the Three Kingdoms says: “The younger sister was bold, fierce, and talented, with the bearing of her elder brothers.
She had over a hundred maids, all of whom stood by her with swords in hand.”
After working out the timeline, Sun Ren realized she’d arrived just before the Marquis of Wu “offered his sister in marriage as a friendly gesture.”
Before long, Liu Xuande would arrive in Wu with great fanfare to cement the marriage alliance.
Ganlu Temple, losing both the wife and the troops, the interception of the river to seize A Dou…
Sun Ren rubbed her hands excitedly. She was going to witness these famous scenes firsthand!
Burning with the enthusiasm of a bystander eager for gossip, Sun Ren worked diligently every day.
Whether she was carrying weapons or delivering messages, there was nothing she wouldn’t do if the princess asked.
Before long, she became the most frequently appearing NPC by Sun Shangxiang’s side.
“Uncle Emperor, our princess has loved weapons since childhood, so we’ve decorated the bridal chamber with them.”
“Your Highness, the Dowager, this is the letter the princess left for you. Yes, that’s right, we’re leaving now!”
“General Zhao, Madam asked me to come get you to soothe the young master… I know this is the second time today, but he keeps asking for Uncle Zhao!”
“Master Zhuge, Madam asks you to dismiss the guards watching the rear courtyard. What’s that smile for?”
At the end of a busy day, Sun Ren gazed up at the stars.
She was tired, but every day was fulfilling. She got to converse with learned scholars and spend time with people of refinement.
She’d seen her share of storms by now.
As a modern-day college student, naive and silly, she’d only wanted to enjoy a comfortable life under the princess’s protection, living it up and getting the inside scoop on the best gossip.
“Hey, don’t you think our princess and General Zhao are getting a little too close?”
But when you’re at the center of the storm, it’s impossible to stay out of it.
Sun Ren: “Huh? How did I end up being the gossip?”
Could that fox-eyed strategist, clever to the point of seeming demonic, have feelings for her?!
Help! He’s been her idol for generations! She even went to Chengdu to pay her respects at his shrine!
“Wait! I don’t want to make it into the history books like this!”
Notes:
1. Main pairing: Sun Ren/Zhuge Liang. Side pairing: Sun Shangxiang/Zhao Yun.
2. The official histories and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms are mixed together, with plenty of creative liberties.
3. The heroine has no special abilities. She’s a diligent, honest person (on the inside) and firmly loyal to her side.
4. The story won’t praise or disparage any faction. The characters have their own biases, but the author will do their best to be fair.
Theme: Cherish the people by your side.
I feel that the heroine is very alive. Before time travel, she was just a female college student, so her planning for this matter after time travel must have been flawed. She was very immature and not a powerful strategist. There was no such thing as forcing others to subdue her to cooperate with the heroine. The heroine's emotional expression is not as stiff as that of a wooden person. Others also have their own actions and thoughts. The heroine did this very recklessly, and she was also suspected because of her recklessness. Zhou Yu did not blindly trust the letter after seeing it, but remained suspicious along with Sun Quan. After everything in the letter happened, Sun Shangxiang got the letter and saw that it was the heroine. In fact, at first I thought it would be a cliche plot of the heroine writing a letter and then being believed to have lost history, but I didn't expect that it was actually written to fit everyone's character, without forcing intelligence. 🤩
Is it necessary to test the heroine like this? It's hard for the relationship between master and servant to develop like this.
When will the author update?
Can you dream up an if line?
The author and sister are so cute, although they have been corrupted by God's will, hahaha, come on, author, what will we eat if you don't update?
What on earth did the heroine jump out to do...
This setting is quite interesting, mark it first
