My new novel, "Ten Thousand Gold Daughters", is now being serialized. Readers who enjoy historical romance and business rivalries, come check it out!
In her previous life, Zhou Tingfang disguised herself as a man and took the imperial examinations in place of her brother to raise her family’s standing. She became the first young prodigy in the Great Wei dynasty to achieve top honors in all six examinations, earning the emperor’s favor and enjoying boundless glory.
Unfortunately, someone broke both her legs on the way back to the capital. Her good-for-nothing brother took her place, married a princess, and became a prince consort. The whole Zhou family rose to prominence, and everyone rejoiced.
With her body crippled, she could only marry in haste. Confined to the inner courtyard, she had to share her husband, and even died without anyone noticing.
Reborn, she wants only two things: to get even with everyone who wronged her, and to enjoy herself.
She’ll take revenge, kill her enemies, and make sure she eats well, too.
In this life, she will live for herself.
Everyone says the heir, Shen Zhi, is as radiant as the moon and clever to the point of seeming demonic.
Unfortunately, he has a condition.
He is blind in both eyes, and cannot even tell men from women!
They were classmates for two years, yet he never realized that the young man at the academy who was his rival in love was actually a woman.
Who in the capital hasn’t heard the romantic tales of the heir, Shen, and that brilliant young scholar?
There are even rumors that the heir broke off his engagement for that young man.
But by the time he came to his senses, the woman he loved had already married. Her legs were broken, she was confined to a corner of the world, and she even met a violent end...
In this life, Shen Zhi wants only two things: to avenge her and bring her home as his wife.

Chapter 21 describes Zhou Tingfang and her companions enduring wind and rain, buying all sorts of things along the way, and spending all their money. But what did the horse eat after traveling for ten days? Horses need to chew, and there's not a single description of buying horse feed. Author, is that a divine horse that doesn't need to eat feed?
The female lead has flaws everywhere, but where exactly are they revealed? He is described as exceptionally intelligent, but his actions do not reflect that.
Well written, all the books are good, the writing style is better than many great authors, and it's not padded out. I love it!
I think the reason this book isn't very popular might be because the title is just so-so. However, I also really like the character settings the author gave to the male and female protagonists: their names are very normal (unlike many people who force themselves to come up with fancy and pretentious names), and the female protagonist's appearance after her rebirth is also ordinary (but talent can still be beautiful). In short, it's a book that only a smart person could write. I like it!
In the past year or two, this book is one of the two best I've read. The characters' inner journeys are described very well, and the plot is tight and captivating! Sometimes I wonder how smart the author must be to write such characters and dialogues. How could they write something like that without a certain amount of experience and insight into life?
This is a story about repression: Zhou Tingfang suppressed her talent, Zhou Xiuyuan suppressed his aspirations, and Shen Zhi suppressed his feelings, leading to Zhou Tingfang's tragedy, which only ended when she became Zhou Fang. This story teaches us: Don't cheat. 🙂
I'll check in first. The introduction looks good, I'll save it for later.
