From the heroine's perspective:
The only daughter of the Tang family was raised as a boy from childhood and given a name that carried the weight of the world: Tang Wan.
Alas, she was meant to turn the tide when it was already falling and prop up a collapsing empire.
From then on, Tang Wan mistakenly took the male lead's role, fighting corrupt officials, raising an emperor, and pushing through reforms until she achieved the position of Grand Secretary.
Until... she met Yuan Lang.
Tang Wan: My mission is to worry about the country and its people, and save the common folk.
Yuan Lang: My mission is to save the common folk with you, and while we're at it, save our romance too.
From the hero's perspective:
As the sole heir of the Langya Xie clan for three generations, Yuan Lang was devastated to discover that he was gay: he had fallen in love with his fellow exam candidate and friend, Tang Wan.
How could he face his ancestors!
What? Tang Wan is a woman?
Wait, does she seem to like him too?
After much deliberation, Yuan Lang slaps his thigh and decides to make an exception for her!

Yuan Lang: My colleagues laugh behind your back because you don't grow a beard. Why not stick on a fake one?
Tang Wan: [Side-eye] Is that so?
The next day

Yuan Lang: [Feeling his chin] I'll risk my life to keep you company...

Title: My Husband Is the Literary World's Leading Figure. Visit the author's profile to support it.
The legendary Tang Yi is said to be a sage reborn. All the eminent scholars of the realm admire him, and even the emperor calls himself his pupil.
On top of that, he's blessed with a handsome face, much to the distress of all the lovestruck young women. They pine for him day and night, wondering when Tang Yi will come to marry them.
But he's so detached from worldly desires that he even called off the marriage arranged by his parents. The young women couldn't wait forever, so one after another they packed up and got married.
Then someone spotted Tang Yi drunk by the river, apparently heartbroken over love. In the end, a woman grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and dragged him away. Wait, wasn't that the Miss Xie who'd been jilted?
The young women went pale: I won't listen! I don't believe it! Stop making things up!
Drunk Tang Yi turns into an octopus: "Sob, sob, why doesn't my wife want me?"
Xie Youqing: "Get off me! Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough?"
Austere literary giant, secretly devious hero x brilliant, confident top student and queen of overthinking
Theme:
It makes people feel so sad to read this article. At first I thought it was because I felt sorry for the heroine. After all, no matter how spiritual confidants, mutual support, and transcendent worldly love, cuteness is love, love brings sorrow, and love brings fear. Love makes people involuntarily jealous, jealous, and sad. No matter how much love accounts for the heroine's heart in the author's setting, as long as she loves the hero, she will definitely feel sad because she sees the hero marry and have children, and the husband and wife are harmonious. This is human nature. But when I saw the heroine urging the hero to marry again, saying that she was destined not to have children for him in this life, I suddenly understood. I'm actually not sad but angry. I am angry that from ancient times to the present, from reality to novels, there are comments everywhere such as "men have difficulties... He can't help himself... He has to consider his family... He is growing... He will get better..." And the idea that women should always be considerate and caring for men, and always be "grateful" and "owing" to men's so-called love. This is mainly the case for heroines in spoiled wife novels, this is the case for heroines in sweet and spoiled novels, and even heroines with big business minds still have to be like this. The heroine in the book is like this, and the author and readers outside the book are still like this. They say that the male protagonist is too perfect, so that his character is more three-dimensional and fuller. They say that pursuing "double purity" is unrealistic. They say that this is the otherworldly understanding and love of each other. But I was so angry, like a lump in my throat. Of course the female protagonist can fall in love with the male protagonist, but I hope that she has the right to feel sad and have the room to refuse and retreat after being hurt and sad, instead of being abandoned, abandoned and betrayed, and being indifferent to her own wounds, and first feeling sorry for the male protagonist's tears and difficulties.
JjHow much does the author love Zhang Juzheng? Almost all the chief ministers and ministers with backgrounds in the Ming Dynasty have a shadow of Mr. Zhang, and he has many fans. The world has never lacked smart and talented women. What it lacks are opportunities and stages for them to show off. One gender denies them everything. Friends and colleagues who once admired, admired, or were close friends can affirm their identity when they learn that they are women. There are very few people who understand. They will be angry and despise these women. They feel that they are deviant and challenge male power. Therefore, there are many dramas about being taken as a concubine by the emperor or powerful people. They will not accept the surrender and will not compromise and submit. Even if they are published online, they will not end well. For example, if the male protagonist, from the perspective of the feudal era, is a noble and upright son of a family, and the lover he pursues whose spirit and ideals are consistent, if he does not meet the female protagonist, he may really only be a man. He can only give the woman the position of a head wife, treat each other as a guest, and do not take concubines. This is already the best husband of that era. No. After that marriage, he may never realize that women need to be treated equally and that they also have flesh and blood and emotional needs. Although the male protagonist is dispensable, this foreshadowing makes people accept that the male and female protagonists know each other in the end, and it escapes from the ordinary love story between men and women. This is a good article worth collecting.
Why don't you just write a non-CP article? It looks really weird.
It's worth reading. I think the author is a very mature person. This article has a great conception and pattern. It does not limit the heroine and hero to their personal love, but rises to the national love. A few friends went from being young and frivolous to having gray hair on their temples, saving a decadent country. As for Shuangjie, I was actually very sad to watch it at first because the male protagonist married someone else midway through the show, but as I read on, I became more accepting of it. Isn't this bound by feudal dogma? How can the love of a son of an aristocratic family only depend on personal preference? You might as well think about it. The author's arrangement like this also perfected and sublimated the role of a son of an aristocratic family like Yuen Long. How can Fenghua not be pitiful?
That's why I say that the author's maturity has made every character fully fleshed out and each has its own characteristics!
I just don't know when I will see such a good article next time.
This is the best article among all the Chaotang articles I have read in JJ! The drama of the court is very realistic and realistic (it can be seen that it pays homage to the history of the Ming Dynasty), and the relationship between Tang and Xie is also very comfortable. The court novels I read before were nothing more than the heroine's planning and the protagonist's sweetness, but this novel gave me a more "realistic" atmosphere. A woman does not have to give birth to a child to have a complete life, and feelings in Tang Xie's heart also succumb to the "new law". They truly saved the building from falling, helped the country, and served the country and the people.
Haha I'm speechless. I feel really uncomfortable watching this. Why is it so disgusting for the male protagonist to have a child?

Pressing the claws, I still have more to say. I haven't seen such a good-looking novel in a long time. Thank you! I don't feel any discomfort at all when I read the article from seven years ago. I can feel that the author's historical knowledge is very solid. I feel so happy after reading it🥰. Many of the early plots made me laugh while reading them, and they are stored at the bottom of the box.
Great writing
I just wanted to ask Mr. Qu whether he will appear again, which is a bit regretful.
Blow it up big [come on]
Woohoo, it's over. I can't bear to leave it. When will I continue to update the book about the literary giant?
