The next contemporary-era novel is The Cannon Fodder Female Lead Swaps Marriages and Marries the Wrong Big Shot.
[This novel is complete. Blurb:
[Ten empresses and consorts became embroiled in feuds with emperors, shaking imperial power. Some people smeared them as beauties who brought ruin to the realm, wicked consorts, and poisonous empresses.]
A light curtain appeared in a parallel world. It showed the latest work by mystery writer Wu Qiushui, who kept her wicked sense of humor, named the victims, and hid the suspects.
The families of those named all went mad. Who was the treacherous beauty who brought ruin to the realm?
Liu Bang glared at Consort Qi. "My beloved?"
Empress Lu calmly replied, "I guarantee it won't be her."
Li Shimin held the blood-vomiting Empress Zhangsun. "I guarantee no woman will be!"
Wu Zetian grinned inwardly. "You can't guarantee that about your sons."
Hong Taiji was at his wedding. "What did I ever do to deserve this? I'm getting married, and they're cursing me with divorce and death?"
Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang: "Call off the wedding, Uncle!"
*+*+*
Those who weren't named were in an uproar too.
Li Longji lamented, "My whole family is full of wicked consorts and poisonous empresses. Why am I not on the list? This makes no sense."
Yang Yuhuan lamented even more. "My mother-in-law died, so why does my father-in-law want me to become a nun? It's not fair."
After hearing the explosive gossip about Wei Zhongxian, Ke Shi, and the Tianqi Emperor's love triangle, Qin Shi Huang fell into thought. "It seems... my mother was quite a handful."
Emperor Wu of Han: "My great-grandmother... wasn't easy to deal with either."
Zhu Yuanzhang: "We don't have any wicked consorts. That's all, everyone can go... Wait! Someone's plotting a rebellion?"

Blurb for the next contemporary-era novel, The Cannon Fodder Female Lead Swaps Marriages and Marries the Wrong Big Shot
Overworked office worker Lin Xuemei wakes up in an 1980s novel. The cornmeal porridge at her rural home is nearly impossible to swallow when her reborn older cousin comes to visit.
The good news: her cousin wants to swap marriage partners with her. Her future in-laws are a wealthy urban family, so she can enjoy special supplies and live in a Western-style villa.
What her cousin doesn't mention is the bad news: her military officer husband is away from home year-round. Everyone from her mother-in-law to the housekeeper looks down on her humble origins and lack of sophistication. She eventually divorces him and returns to her hometown in disgrace. Meanwhile, the younger cousin she always looked down on enjoys a happy family life, and her poor husband makes it big and becomes the country's richest man!
The whole family is baffled and doesn't know what to do. Lin Xuemei alone slaps her chest and declares, "Let's swap!"
The marriage swap succeeds. The military officer vanishes the day after the wedding. The villa is grand, the special supplies are delicious, and she can lounge in comfort until they divorce. The wealthy family cares about appearances, so they'll even give her a generous severance payment. As for her mother-in-law and the housekeeper, seasoned worker Lin Xuemei can easily crush them. She's confident, and it won't even take any effort.
Everything is going well. There's just one thing wrong: the military officer comes back. And once he returns, he never leaves again.
Then more and more things start going wrong...
The story says the military officer is a weak mama's boy. But when he gives someone a cold look, not only do his mother and the housekeeper hardly dare breathe, even the wealthy old man at the sanatorium has to show him respect.
The story says they're only married in name. But once the door closes, he gets so fierce that Lin Xuemei grits her teeth and hangs on while silently repeating a hundred times, "Didn't we agree to divorce? When are you going to bring it up? When are you going to bring it up..."
The man leaves the military and starts a business, becoming a wealthy celebrity. They still don't divorce. Every year when they return to their hometown, her cousin's gaze grows more and more venomous. Her cousin stole her younger cousin's marriage and got her wish of becoming the richest man's wife. But she causes a scene every day and ruins the business, driving her husband to leave for another town. In this life, the cousin still ends up divorced and gravely ill.
Lin Xuemei doesn't realize she married the wrong man until after having a child and resuming contact with her second uncle's family, who live in another building entrance. She happens to run into her younger male cousin when he comes home to visit, and only then learns the truth.
The historical mystery novel about the Embroidered Uniform Guard, The Undercover Agent's Identity Is Exposed and She Becomes a Sensation, is complete. Please add it to your reading list!
Seven bizarre serial murder cases, spanning two hundred years of Ming history
Strange people and strange events in the court and martial world, Chinese-style horror, adventure, and mystery
Theme: Who says women are inferior to men? Women hold up half the sky.
What is persecution? What kind of good thing is the Donglin Party? All the emperors in the Ming Dynasty who didn't like the civil service group died very strangely. They all died early.
Tianqi's wife Zhang Yan and the British father-in-law say goodbye and they don't even have a dime of relationship with each other? Zhang Yan's father is Zhang Guoji, a poor supervisor who failed many times. His daughter won the title of Taikang Bo after becoming a queen. The British prince Zhang Weixian was a descendant of Zhang Fu, the old Jingnan nobleman. Let's read the history of the Ming Dynasty before writing a novel. There must be a limit to making up things, right? This is really a fool's errand to deceive the ancients.
It's clear that both groups are trash, why do you feel like you're trying to support them? It's not a good thing to step on both of them at the same time.
I don't want to follow up after seeing this. It's too confusing. The preface doesn't match the follow-up. I write this now and then that, and I even make it up. I don't ask for more brilliant writing, but at least respect the history.
I want to continue reading, but after reading the previous ones, I feel that the author's preface and follow-up are not consistent, and the jumps are too confusing. I just write whatever comes to my mind.
It was so painful to watch, I just couldn't stand it anymore.
Indeed, there are some places where there is no beginning or end, which is quite uncomfortable to watch.
I don't understand. We all know about the An-Shi Rebellion, so why do we still pass on the throne to Li Longji? Is it a retreat to advance?
Just kidding:
It is said that Lu Bu killed his father. In fact, Zheng Ge did not hesitate to give in to his father.
His biological father, Ying Zichu, passed away naturally.
Lu Buwei, who wanted to be his second-father, gave him poisoned wine and died.
Lao Ai, who wanted to be his fake father, had her car crashed.
Anyone who wants to be his father will end badly.
Lychee has a dark belly. She is also a teacher, a friend, and a comrade. We are on the same front. The 95 CP really smells so good. Wow.
