Today, I Have to Make a Grand Entrance

The blurb for the upcoming work Blue Robe is below. Blurb: After transmigrating into the third branch of the Duke of Ping's household, Song Jiaran and Zheng Liyan treaded carefully. Every day was a trial by fire: they were afraid the food might be poisoned and terrified of being thrown from their horses. At last, they managed to establish themselves, but before they could enjoy the luxurious life of the ducal estate, they learned that the duke had committed a grave offense and everyone in the household would be exiled. "..." Fine, they could endure exile. As long as the family pulled together, and they had their golden finger to help, they could still make a life for themselves. But their biased father only cared about the eldest brother, their white-lotus stepmother wanted to give everything to the younger brother, and there was a calculating eldest brother in front of them and half-brothers with their own schemes behind them... The couple had no choice but to keep their golden finger hidden and play the pitiful pair all the way through. When a new emperor ascended the throne, he overturned wrongful convictions and granted a general amnesty. By imperial grace, the Duke of Ping's household went from convicted criminals to free citizens. On the day their household registration was restored, the third branch was the first to be given its own household. The other branches all expected the couple to make fools of themselves, but as the days passed, the news about the third branch became more astonishing with every report. The third branch opened a shop! The third branch bought a house! The third young master passed the imperial examination and is going to become an official! Even the third young master's wife, who hadn't conceived in years, gave birth to a healthy baby boy! As the third branch's life got better by the day, the other branches grew restless... A loyal, strong, strapping big dog of a man * a sharp-minded woman with a soft heart who refuses to back down [Reading Guide] 1. Both the male and female leads transmigrate. They were already married before transmigrating, and they have a golden finger. 2. Slow-paced, not a wish-fulfillment story. The early chapters focus on life in a large household, the middle section is about exile, and after the family splits up, the story mainly focuses on farming and running a business. The male lead will take the imperial examinations. 3. Set in a fictional dynasty. Prices, official positions, and other details are all made up, so please don't nitpick historical accuracy. 4. The opinions expressed by characters do not represent the author's views. The supporting cast is varied and exists to serve the plot. Please read and discuss rationally. If it's not to your taste, part on good terms; there's no need to force yourself. Maybe we'll meet again in another story. The upcoming work Blue Robe is available to view on my author page. 1. Yao Qingshang, the daughter of a modest family, caught the empress's eye and was made a concubine to the crown prince. The Yao family was overjoyed. In a small sedan chair, Yao Qingshang entered the Eastern Palace, where she was confined to its four walls from then on. The crown prince was gentle and refined, admired Confucian learning, and loved poetry and prose. The crown princess, the principal consort, and the other consorts of the Eastern Palace were all well-read and talented in the arts. Yao Qingshang alone couldn't recognize a single character, yet her slender waist and tender gaze won her the crown prince's favor above all others. The palace maids of the Eastern Palace all whispered among themselves: once the crown prince ascends the throne, Yao will surely become his favorite consort. But Yao Qingshang didn't think so. 2. Everyone said the crown prince treasured a lowly concubine, but only Yao Qingshang knew how terrifying he was in private. She could only wish to drink his blood and devour his flesh. A favorite consort? How could that be enough? She would stand at the very summit of power, steal his love, destroy his authority, ruin his desires, and sully his name. Only then could she soothe the hatred in her heart. 3. The new emperor fell gravely ill, and Consort Yao took charge of the court in his stead. No one knew that in the dimly lit Hall of Diligent Governance, the new emperor lay on his bed like a dried-up husk, glaring with bulging eyes at the man and woman embracing before him. "Your Ladyship, when will you give this humble official a title?" The young, vigorous man kissed Yao Qingshang's fingertips. The beauty only laughed sweetly. "Why should a man need a title? Wouldn't it be more thrilling to be my lover?" Theme: Working together to build a better life
