Battling the Powerful Clans

I strongly advise anyone who hasn't read it not to read it!! I was wrong; I only gradually discovered its disgusting aspects after reading over 400 chapters! The female lead's adoptive father's parents, siblings, and their entire family took advantage of their adoptive parents' most difficult time, kicking them out of their home and not letting them stay overnight.

This book is truly captivating; it's so engaging you can't put it down. A young woman, burdened with family vengeance, schemes amidst the chaos of the lower classes. The captivating atmosphere of the Wei Dynasty is vividly portrayed. However, one thing the author overlooked is the importance of social etiquette in ancient times.

This is utterly illogical. Zhang Fu knew his mother and concubine had poisoned his first wife, yet he still made his daughter and son kneel. If someone killed his mother, causing him to be displaced from a young age, lose his parents, and suffer repeated poisonings, could he still sit calmly with them? It's absurd.

I've read over 400 chapters, and it's absolutely disgusting. The more I read, the more nauseating it became. They accept this kind of person, that kind of person, this pitiful one, that tragic one. They forgive even the worst relatives. I thought it meant they were rich and powerful enough to take revenge and destroy their enemies' families, but what happened?

The author portrays Zhang Fu with the same visceral feel as the emperor in "Empresses in the Palace," which is truly astounding. So disgusting, I had no choice but to abandon the story. The author speaks with such conviction and self-righteousness, which I find utterly ridiculous. If you insist on this, then so be it; readers have the right to choose whether or not to read the story.

This is utterly ridiculous! The female lead's father claims to love her mother so much that he begged her father-in-law for a year before finally marrying his goddess. Then the female lead and her half-sister are born around the same time, and their two sons are also born around the same time – disgusting! The woman he loves dies, and he immediately proposes a wife to his concubine.

When I read the first volume, I thought the ending would be that the female protagonist would become strong and one day stand firmly in front of her enemies as the powerful woman who is "the daughter of a noble family"... Unexpectedly, this volume has been a series of compromises and concessions, and now there is nowhere left to retreat...

Huo Nian even kowtows to Wang Shi to avenge his mother's death? Has the female lead gone mad? Is she really willing to disregard everything for the sake of becoming the heir apparent, determined to get involved in the power struggles within the household?

How did Zhang Fu become a general with such a personality? No wonder the emperor wanted to observe his ability to handle family affairs before deciding whether to use him. He's so scum and stupid, easily swayed by his concubine and mother, wavering between them. He clearly investigated everything but let it go unchecked, allowing his mother and concubine to continue their antics.

I'm seriously considering dropping this book now. The title and the content are becoming increasingly mismatched. We're almost 500 chapters in, and the female lead hasn't even gotten close to the powerful, let alone conquered them. As the eldest daughter of a noble family, now living among commoners, her priority should be fighting for her younger brother's, her mother's, and her own status, not…
