New Novel: Looking Back on Gongjin's Days

Recommended Novel by a Friend: After Returning to the Palace, I Drove the Paranoid Eunuch Crazy

Ji He transmigrates to the late Eastern Han dynasty, when a devastating famine grips the Jianghuai region.

She is fairly lucky: Sima Yi rescues her and even gives her money to open a tavern.

At first, she only wants to muddle through life and help Sima Yi when she can.

Then she unexpectedly meets Guo Jia, who has just arrived in Xudu.

Guo Jia is cheerful and easy to get along with, but he's in poor health and has plenty of bad habits.

Ji He watches as Guo Jia steadily establishes himself in Cao Cao's camp,

while also gradually racking up a huge debt to her.

Is she trying to help Guo Jia? No. Ji He just wants her money back.

Guo Jia: A He, if you stay with me, you won't be able to live in seclusion.

Ji He: Who asked you?

It's basically a story about a woman who knows Guo Jia will die young, but still wants to know him and share a life with him.

(The heroine's ability to help is limited. She is no great savior who will rescue the world and its people. She's just a tavern owner who won't pledge herself to a lord. If she does anything for anyone, it's simply for that person.)
