"You have to do something, something that means crossing mountains and seas, with a long and difficult road ahead. You'll face countless setbacks, perhaps even be shattered to pieces, but you have to see it through, because it is what your heart cherishes and what your soul desires."
Li Biyue entered Chengjian Manor to learn swordsmanship at eleven, became the greatest swordswoman under heaven at nineteen, and took charge of Chengjian Manor at twenty. By imperial command, she sets out for Hailing to escort the Buddha's relics to the capital.
Beneath a clear and peaceful sky, demonic forces run rampant. If the law cannot bring order, then one sword will cut them down.
When the Fusang delegation is ambushed by pirates at sea, Li Biyue seeks out a wandering Daoist in Hailing City, a master of every trick and fraud whose predictions are wrong nine times out of ten, to get to the bottom of the case.
It doesn't matter if his fortune-telling is inaccurate or if he's a con artist, as long as he can find a clue, the court can use him as a pillar of talent. But why does this Daoist look more and more like the childhood friend with whom she was once betrothed?
Yu Wuzhuan has cultivated the Dao for years, his heart untouched by worldly matters.
At first, he considers his Daoist resolve unshakable. Falling for a woman is simply out of the question.
Later, he lies awake night after night, tossing and turning over just one question: "Does she truly love me, or am I just a substitute?"
In the end, he only wants to hold this bright moon in his arms. As for cultivating the Dao, whoever wants to can do it.
Childhood sweethearts, reunited after a long separation.
Pairing: A calm, powerful heroine with sky-high IQ and EQ x a laid-back, Daoist-style hero
Reader's Notes:
1. Set in a fictionalized Tang Dynasty with fantasy elements.
2. The main plot follows a strong female lead through mysteries, adventures, and revenge, with a touch of suspense. The heroine is the strongest, the hero supports her, and both have character-growth arcs.
3. The plot-to-romance ratio is 7:3. Childhood friends reunited, together from childhood to adulthood, one-on-one, mutually devoted, with a sweet happy ending.
My next novel, Married First, Falling in Love with My Nemesis After an Arranged Marriage, is coming soon. Please add it to your reading list.
Xue Yi, the youngest daughter of a family of imperial physicians, and Gu Xilou, the youngest son of a family of imperial merchants, have been betrothed since childhood.
The bride is beautiful and gentle. Apart from being timid and afraid to go out after dark, she has no real flaws.
The groom is handsome, refined, and proper. Apart from being frail and out of breath after a few steps, he has no real flaws.
When the wedding day arrives, both families celebrate joyfully. Everyone says the newlyweds are a perfect match and are sure to enjoy a prosperous life together.
The bride has a secret: she isn't really Xue Yi. Her real name is Lu Jianchun, and she married into the Gu family under a false identity to obtain a precious treasure hidden by the family.
But before she can get her hands on it, she discovers another secret. Her husband isn't really Gu Xilou either. He has entered the Gu family under a false identity, with a purpose of his own.
The bad news: beneath that disguise is her old nemesis, Li Yinghai, who once clashed with her at every turn.
The good news: he doesn't seem to know that she's an impostor too.
Lu Jianchun carefully plays the virtuous and dutiful young Madam Gu, speaking softly to her husband every day and caring for him with utmost devotion. At last, she wins Li Yinghai's deep affection, and he risks everything to steal the treasure for her.
Once she has the treasure, Lu Jianchun wastes no time making her escape. Just as she climbs over the wall, someone holds a sword to her. Her sickly husband gives her a faint smile. "My dear, you used me and now you want to leave? There's no such easy way out."
Li Yinghai receives a commission to pose as his employer and marry in his place. He'll get a thousand taels of silver for playing "Gu Xilou" for three months. He would never turn down money, so he gladly accepts.
At first, he does it for the money.
Later, he discovers that his "wife" is hiding plenty of secrets.
And later still, he realizes this may be a losing deal that will cost him more than just money.
#After the substitute marriage, they discover the other is an impostor too
#A seemingly gentle but scheming heroine vs. a seemingly frivolous but truly calculating hero
#A historical version of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, with both leads thinking eight hundred steps ahead
Theme: As Heaven moves with vigor, so should a person strive tirelessly to improve.
I have reached the last chapter, and I feel a little sad to be honest. It always feels like there is a deliberate obstacle for the heroine. When describing the plot, the heroine always gives me a sense of incongruity, sometimes she is very powerful and sometimes she is stupid. I've finished all the bookings and I'm disappointed that I haven't finished reading yet another chapter... I hope you'll continue to work hard.
I always thought it was a popular article after reading it. I rarely spend money these days, so I was shocked when I looked at the data. When Chai Fei was waiting in the bed, he saw that the process was very smooth, almost done in one go. It's a great story-driven work. I feel like I can find a blogger to promote it. If I have a chance, I'll give it a thumbs up and rate it first. [Let me be healthy]
Finally finished watching it! Very beautiful! The plot and characters are all great! I finished reading it yesterday and am still thinking about it today. I really like the content of the debate, the collision of ideas and the arc of the characters. Thousands of words, just one word: Bang 💪 💪 💪 💪 💪 💪 💪 💪 💪
It's been a long time since I've seen a group portrait article with a logical closed loop and a full growth line. The author is really awesome 💪 But the male protagonist has very few scenes and a few love lines 🤔
Finished reading it quickly! The author's previous book "Carrying a Knife to Shine the Snow" read the beginning and stopped reading because the heroine's personality was not interesting to my taste, but I remembered that the author's writing style was very good. This book attracted me very much from the beginning. As the lord of Chengjian Palace in the Tang Dynasty, Biyue stood out from the beginning. His martial arts skills and meticulous thinking can be of great use. The male protagonist is also a lazy Taoist priest as the copywriter said. From the initial meeting of Biyue and Yun Yi, to the recognition in the middle, and to the last long stay together, everything is well written, and the plot line and emotional line are all taken into account. The only shortcoming is that the plot is a bit lengthy in the final stage, but for a long novel with nearly one million words, it is not a flaw. Looking forward to the author's next book 💪💪
What a cute couple xql!
I really like this story about the caterpillar and the dandelion.
The plot is well written, 4.6-4.8 Points, but the characters can only be given 3.5 Points. I said I wanted to write a group portrait, but I wasn't sure about the details. There were too many emotional lines written on the sub-CP, and the appearance of the sub-CP emotional lines did not promote the main line at all, resulting in no distinction between priority and secondary. The last person to go offline was also inexplicable. There was obviously a big boss around, but the deputy CP just left the main CP and ran away. Then the main character has been pushed by the plot. Like the dungeon boss, he can only come alive if there is a dungeon. Just like the AI, it makes people feel uncomfortable.
Sahuahua ~ I like the heroine Li Biyue very much, I hope I can continue to find this kind of heroine's novels in the future, yeah ~
Love it, thank you for the limited offer!
