The Demanding Consort’s Lie-Flat Life in the 1960s

Chu Miaoyan was a noble consort in the Great Yong dynasty. She spent her whole life scheming and fighting, and just when she'd finally defeated everyone, the emperor, the person who supported her most, gave her a poisoned cup of wine and killed her.

When Chu Miaoyan awoke again, she had become the daughter of a dean in China in the 1960s.

Her new family was loving, with parents who cherished her. Thinking about how exhausted she had been by all the scheming in her previous life, and how it hadn't even helped her live longer, Chu Miaoyan decisively chose to lie flat this time around and be a happy little slacker.

Who could have known her family would suddenly be struck by disaster? Her parents were to be sent down to work on a farm. To spare their daughter the hardship, they hastily married Chu Miaoyan off to Gu Jiuzhou, the regiment commander who lived next door and came from a humble, peasant background.

Chu Miaoyan felt that, as a noble consort, marrying a peasant-born soldier was a little embarrassing.

But when she saw Gu Jiuzhou, tall and handsome, radiating the aura of a born king, during their wedding night, Chu Miaoyan immediately gave up resisting. Forget it. You can lie flat anywhere. At least Gu Jiuzhou was handsome, earned a good salary, and could save her parents. This was a good deal!

On their wedding night, Gu Jiuzhou awakened to the memories of his previous life.

In his last life, to repay the kindness of his neighbor, he married the neighbor's daughter, Chu Miaoyan.

Who knew that after they married, Chu Miaoyan would hate his humble background, hate how grimy he got from training every day, and hate that he knew nothing about romance? Then she found herself a refined lover and worked with him to frame Gu Jiuzhou, nearly getting him killed on the battlefield.

This time, he had already married her, so there was no way to undo it. Gu Jiuzhou patiently waited for Chu Miaoyan to bring about her own downfall, waiting for her and her lover to get together so he could seize the chance to kick her out of the military camp.

But as time went by, Gu Jiuzhou realized that this life, Chu Miaoyan wasn't quite right.

She no longer looked at him with all the loathing she had shown before. She even complained at night that he didn't have enough tricks up his sleeve.

Gu Jiuzhou: This makes no sense.
