[A farming, business-building, and food story!]
Tao Jiang loves a novel about the imperial examinations.
The male lead, Gu Pingzhang, is strikingly handsome and has been hailed as a child prodigy since he was young. At twenty-one, the emperor personally names him top scholar in the palace examination. He later rises to great heights and becomes the revered Chief Grand Secretary, a figure remembered throughout history.
Yet at sixteen, he was framed and imprisoned through a conspiracy between his wife and her lover. He endured brutal torture, was left with a body full of ailments, and died young.
Now, Tao Jiang has become this great man's ill-fated ex-wife.
And the lover has already had Gu Pingzhang imprisoned and tortured for ten days.
Tao Jiang: ???
Thinking of what happened to the original wife after she ran off with her lover: she miscarried, was disfigured, her face covered in pitted scars, and was torn apart by wild dogs. Tao Jiang shuddered.
She rushed straight to the prison to see Gu Pingzhang.
The once-radiant young man was now barely alive, his face smeared with blood.
Tao Jiang gave him water, treated his wounds, and did her best to prove her loyalty. "I'll save you."
Please don't have me torn apart by horses once you're successful, sob.
Gu Pingzhang was taken aback, but didn't take her words to heart.
He didn't trust this foolish, vain woman.
But he never expected Tao Jiang to truly rush around on his behalf and make plans to save him, instead of running off with her lover and taking his money like she had in his previous life.
Later, Gu Pingzhang rose steadily through the ranks and became Chief Grand Secretary. Yet the only woman in his household was the wife who had stood by him when he was down and out.
People said Tao Jiang was beautiful and seductive, and that even the Chief Grand Secretary had fallen under her spell, refusing a marriage arranged by the emperor.
Tao Jiang had planned to earn enough favor with the great man to leave on good terms and live freely on her own. But when she had packed her things and asked for a divorce, the great man's smile turned frightening. "You want to leave?"
Tao Jiang nodded vigorously.
The great man: "I won't allow it."
Tao Jiang was bewildered. "But..."
His gaze turned cold. "Whose wife do you think you can be, if not mine?"
Afterward, Tao Jiang was furious. "I thought you were supposed to be an upright, chaste man! You're a black-hearted schemer!"
Bonus scene:
One day, at a palace banquet, Tao Jiang met a newly appointed top scholar and smiled politely at him.
Word had it that after he returned home, the top scholar could neither eat nor sleep, and composed a poem praising Tao Jiang's beauty.
When Gu Pingzhang found out, he reprimanded the top scholar and sent him off to Jian'nan to oversee flood control.
The Chief Grand Secretary was upright and otherworldly in public, but with Tao Jiang, he was almost ready to absorb her into his very bones. His possessiveness was terrifying.

Once people experience the feeling of asking for leave, tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk
Obviously the whole book has a relaxed and happy writing style. I smiled when I read it. In fact, when I first saw Gu Chan's solo extra story, I had an intuition that this chapter would definitely change the previous relaxed feeling. It was expected that Gu Chan did not enter the palace, and the choice he made from the heart was the right one. Obviously Everyone is still happy in this chapter, but I don't know why it still makes me feel sad. Generation after generation has grown old, but the Gu Chan generation mentioned in one stroke, a few numbers are more sad than writing a whole life. In fact, I really couldn't hold back my tears when I saw Leng Ning'er, Shao The Nian Emperor's paranoia destined him and Gu Chan to have nothing to do with each other. The excitement is enough. Maybe what I'm really sad about is that this book has come to an end, but I still want everyone to be happy, but I know that this is unrealistic. Even if I write about everyone's happy ending, it seems like It's like Huang Liang Yimeng, well, it's actually just staying up late to read the novel and it's really emo. I don't know why I couldn't help it when I saw the scene where Leng Ning'er passed away. Thank you to the author for presenting it. In fact, when I first read it, I thought the heroine was too childish and heartless. But the more I look at it, I realize that such a talent is the core of this story. In fact, if you look closely, you will find that most of the people in this story are very miserable and helpless. I actually thought that the author would let Wei Gu and Ouyang be together, and Sun Liuqing be together. It was also unexpected, but when I think about it carefully, this is actually the only happy couple among the people I met in this story, apart from the male and female protagonists. They really have a magical fit, and the male and female protagonists have a lot of emotional lines. It is this kind of daily interaction that is so precious in Gu Pingzhang's heart. Gui, the end of the main text is unexpected, but the decades of extra chapters are even more confusing. Every time I intuitively tell myself not to click on the story of the supporting character, it must be BE or to read it. After reading this book, it gave me the feeling of reading a Zhihu article called "You Are So Alone" (I mean The writing style is similar, not plagiarism. Don't get me wrong. The plot of the sisters has nothing to do with it.) They were both very happy when I read them, but when I looked back, I realized that I still had helpless and bitter memories. However, the ending of the protagonist in this book is much better than that of Hao Du. Gu Pingzhang and Tao Jiang are very happy and happy! Thanks again to the author! Really well written!
What the hell is sad suddenly?
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, the original heroine is like this
I feel like Sun Liuqing is having a lot of fun in private. Ahem... Cross-dressing. Hehehe. Sister Wei'er, how much fun are you having in private? (Roaring)
Ahhhhhh, finally!!!!!! Go and write on the po, I like reading it.
Welfare extra, hurry up!
It's good to watch, but the emotional scenes are a bit late.
Is this a fate update? I looked at it the next day, but there was no update the next day. Are you busy?
Ah ah ah ah ah, big brother, I want to climb on your bedside in the middle of the night
