The Idle Son-in-Law of Zhenguan

Would Li Er dare to fight against the powerful clans? He had no fear of princesses. If Li Er dared to arbitrarily confiscate the property of these clans, his throne would be unstable the very next day, and rebellions would erupt.

It's frustrating! What are you, the Wang family of Taiyuan, afraid of, the royal family?

It seems like many people with lower levels of education online are demonizing aristocratic families, almost placing them above emperors.

This book is destined to flop. The plot is handled too crudely, and there are too many flaws. The first few chapters were written very comfortably and can be considered a masterpiece. The idea of ​​using fine salt is like using a cannon to kill a mosquito. Although it has flaws, they are not serious. However, directly exposing it to the princess is disgusting.

So far, both the princess and the protagonist seem to have problematic behavior. First, the princess allowed a strange man to grope her, which in ancient times would have ruined her reputation. Second, the protagonist, with his life in someone else's hands, still dared to provoke them; he's practically asking for trouble.

This is outrageous! First, let's talk about the book. When I saw Princess Runan being spanked, and the protagonist asking about her illness, it was incredibly awkward. Such inexplicable confidence? You've met someone twice, and you just pinned her down on the table with her big butt? After spanking her, she's about to kill you, and you shamelessly ask about her illness? Absurd, okay?!

This is a highly toxic novel. Anyone with a modicum of intelligence and logical thinking will find it unreadable. As a princess, handling such a serious matter as smuggling salt, she actually went alone to someone's house and even shared a room with them, using such a despicable method to try and steal the smuggled salt formula. The male lead is also a piece of trash; he spanks her, treating girls like this—more terrifying than a thousand-year-old pervert. 😰

Sure enough, books recommended are different. I consider myself a well-read person, having read all sorts of novels during reading slumps, and I think my tolerance for bad reading is quite high. If I don't like a book, I just leave it; there's no need to complain, after all, everyone has their own taste. But this book makes me feel uncomfortable if I don't complain.

The male protagonist, a scion of two prominent families, is threatened at his doorstep by a wealthy woman he doesn't even know? He's even spanked? And when he sees her coughing, he wants to take her to get treatment?! This is absolutely ridiculous.

The opening scene, where the protagonist is shocked to see impurities in the fine salt and accuses the merchant of being a swindler, is truly a major plot hole. You know this is ancient times without advanced technology; there's no need to be so foolish as to introduce new techniques to make money. The protagonist's loud and boisterous behavior feels forced. Later, the scenes involving his interactions with women are just awkwardly written.
