Are you out of your mind? You want Sister You to manage the household?! Don't you have a wife? What right does she have to manage the Ningguo Mansion? You might as well just give the title to Liu Xianglian. Otherwise, Sister You will never be in charge of the household. Pimping is bad enough, how can you make it even worse?!
What kind of nonsense is this? Seven or eight thousand bandits roam freely in the capital, killing princes and nobles as if they were nothing. A 30,000-strong army was annihilated in their encirclement. Is it a joke that this court can still exist? Can't you use your brain?
Whether it succeeds or not is unimportant; if you write about the protagonist pimping, not many people will want to read on.
Stop with the pimping! "Sister You San" as a housekeeper, "Liu Xianglian" as a bodyguard—it's laughable. Unless you make them sign a contract of servitude first. It even goes on and on, with several chapters detailing pimping. Who are the You sisters, the main characters? Are they their biological mother? Do you know how promiscuous the two You sisters were in the original novel?
It's impossible for Jia Rong and Jia Qiang's generation to be with Lin Daiyu or Xue Baochai. It's possible for someone of Shi Xiangyun's generation, but this is feudal ancient times, okay? Even in modern times, if you wanted to marry your cousin, your family, parents, and elders wouldn't agree. Unless it's someone from the older generation like Jia, Shi, Wang, Xue, or Jia She... Only if Jia Zheng, Wang Ziteng, Aunt Xue, and all of Jia Mu were dead would it be possible.
I couldn't continue reading after chapter 21. It has absolutely no idea what the author is trying to write, no sense of crisis, and it doesn't even explain the main plot before jumping off to pimping. It's toxic.
A box of matches sold for 6 taels? Even the imperial palace wouldn't dare use that, let alone a household cooking with silver! A box of matches costs only a few cents these days; that's just low-profit, high-volume sales for ordinary people! How much purchasing power did 6 taels of silver have in ancient times? Let's not even talk about anything else.
Based on the protagonist's decisiveness alone, this book is bound to be a success as long as it doesn't add unnecessary plot twists or become a mindless harem novel later on.
The part about pimping for You Sanjie and Liu Xianglian really drove away a lot of readers. I subscribed to the later parts of the series, and then those two just disappeared.
The first thing he did upon seizing power was to send his daughter to the emperor. He acts as a pimp, a gigolo. Please be aware.
