The Phoenix Throws the Court into Chaos

[Read with caution: early chapters] This book is also known as The Marquis's Daily Guide to Wooing His Wife and How to Turn a Cool, Distant Lady into Putty in Your Hands. Wen Jun was devastatingly beautiful, cool and aloof. Her father was falsely accused of colluding with the enemy, and her entire family was sentenced to death. She narrowly escaped and was taken in by her adoptive father, who trained her into a political mastermind. The court is peaceful? Then sow discord. The throne is secure? Then shake things up. Perhaps she was so used to manipulating others that she let her guard down and got played by the Marquis of Guangling. Xiao Yuxie: "My lady, do you really not want to see me?" Wen Jun, coldly: "That's right." A few years later... Xiao Yuxie: "My lady, come here to your husband." Wen Jun, blushing: "All right." She nestled into his arms like a little bird. 1. The heroine is aloof and calculating; the hero is obsessed with flirting with his wife. Both are each other's first and only love. 2. The hero makes a brief appearance at the beginning, then occasionally pops up in the background. He makes a grand entrance in chapter thirteen, and once he appears, the story turns sweet and romantic. 3. No palace intrigue or domestic scheming, just political battles. This is a strategy-and-politics story, so come on in if that's your thing. 4. The setting is entirely fictional. Please don't nitpick the historical details.
