Upcoming story: The Con Artist Couple's Daily Life. A cunning, carnivorous sweetheart × a ruthless, fake aloof beauty
After the final tally is complete, I'll post a bonus extra chapter. Thank you all for your continued support!
Story blurb:
Blurb one: Jiang Xu transmigrated ten years ago. Her life was ordinary, and all she wanted was for her family to live in peace and happiness.
But fate had other plans. At that very moment, a dynasty that had flourished for two hundred years was approaching its end.
The land fell into chaos. Warlords carved it up, lives were lost, and the people were plunged into misery.
She wandered through the chaos, witnessing the warmth and coldness of human nature, the joys and sorrows, the partings and reunions.
Just as the old opera sings: she watched him build a grand tower, then watched it collapse. And all along, she was merely a spectator.
Blurb two: What Jiang Xu thought transmigration would be like: a noblewoman of a great family, surrounded by servants, with nothing to worry about except which cousin to choose as her husband.
What her transmigration was actually like: The Zhang family has rebelled, time to run away → The commandery governor has rebelled, run again → I heard... Enough already! It's just a rebellion, right? I can do that too! (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
Reader's guide:
1. This isn't a wish-fulfillment story. Other people are fighting over the realm, and the heroine is only a participant. She can't change her fate.
2. There is a male lead, but little romance. Please don't read if that's a dealbreaker.
3. The setting is entirely made up. Don't nitpick.
Below is the blurb for the upcoming The Con Artist Couple's Daily Life:
Pei Jie was born into the Hedong Pei clan. He was of noble birth and exceptionally learned. Everyone who met him praised him: “His beauty is like jade, his bearing like pine. No other man in the world can compare.”
Yet this extraordinarily talented and brilliant young gentleman had a coarse concubine, Yang Shisanniang.
She was born to a collateral branch of a gentry family, and her mother's family kept her as a singing girl. Despite her lowly status, she set a wicked trap for Pei Jie at a spring banquet and forced him to marry her!
Pei Jie was kindhearted and couldn't bear to see her executed by her family, so he kindly took her as his concubine.
Yet Lady Yang didn't mend her ways. Taking advantage of her status as a woman in Pei Jie's household, she threw her weight around, beat and berated the maids and servants, and even humiliated the daughter of the Xie family, who had been engaged to Pei Jie. The Xie family was enraged and broke off the engagement! How could such a vicious woman ever be worthy of Pei Jie?
Yang Shisanniang felt she was truly being wronged. She'd meant to set a trap for Lu Jiulang, so how had it ended up being Pei Jie? She thought she'd just make do, but Pei Jie was a gentleman of jade-like beauty in the eyes of the noble young women of the capital, and ruthless behind closed doors. He suspected a maid of being a spy, so he used Yang to beat her and drive her out. He disliked the Xie girl, so he threatened Yang into helping him break off the engagement. She did all the dirty work while he got to play the good guy! She couldn't take another day of this!
Reason for entering the competition: The heroine is an ordinary woman who transmigrated to another world. As chaos approaches, she happens to join the rebel army, where she uses her wits to devise strategies and fight on the battlefield, helping the rebel leader conquer the realm and protect the local people. Later, she uses what she knows from her previous world to help the new dynasty establish new institutions and open academies. As she helps the people, she also finds her life's purpose and realizes her ideals and ambitions.

Inexplicably, he must deal with these dramas about the remnants of Zhao Zan's previous dynasty, the speechless love between children,
If Jiang Xu's marriage was known to others, Zhao Da should be exposed, at least Lin Jing should be able to guess it.
Zhao Jian, it's quite sad. I always feel that if the Zhao family had a little sun-type character, they wouldn't have reached this point. Zhao Jian is a mediocre king. He is greedy and lustful, but his ability is limited, but he does not destroy his humanity. The throne magnifies his shortcomings, and no one can coax him, so he goes further and further down the wrong road. The final ending should be a happy ending for everyone, but except for Zhao Jian, from his perspective, his wife is separated, his officials are unfaithful, his sons kill each other, and his daughter commits suicide. His world is over.
The person who trusts the male protagonist the most in the whole book is actually Yu Niang. Neither his brothers nor his mother, the female protagonist, believe him. Only Yu Niang does, with tears in her eyes.
Let's fight for the reserve. We can't fight for the reserve and there will be no role for Zhao Da.
I think Zhao Guan is a hypocrite. Why doesn't he want to turn against his brother? Seeing that it was Military Advisor Lin pushing him away step by step, in fact, he, the coach, didn't even have an idea? His men wanted to kill the prince because they were afraid that the prince would ascend the throne and kill him. He said that he and his brother had a deep friendship. Did he ask his men not to attack the prince when they rebelled?? Hypocritical
It feels like Zhao Jian's family is like Li Yuan's family. Zhao Guan is like Qin King Li Shimin. Especially later when the prince and Li Wen rebelled, it gave me a feeling like the Xuanwu Gate Incident.
It's still sad to think about the hero's family. The whole family is separated. It's so difficult for the emperor's family.
In fact, if they are really hostile, why not pretend to be brothers and sisters, and finally take action secretly to be more effective?
