The Two Sisters Were so Skinny That They Went Crazy

During the Dali period of the Ming Dynasty, Wen Jing, a scholar from the south of the Yangtze River, went to the capital for an examination. He fainted from hunger at the gate of Su City and was forcibly abducted by the richest man, the Liu family, to celebrate. The Liu family relied on the support of concubines in the palace and relatives of the fourth-rank magistrate to use their power and threats to force Wen Jing into marrying into his wife. After the bridal chamber, Liu Huahua recovered from her illness and tortured Wenjing day and night until she was as thin as firewood, her oil was gone and her lamp was dry, and then she was thrown into the wilderness like discarded objects. Wen Jing went home begging for half a month. Two daughters from the literary family, Wen Hua and Wen Caiben, worked as maids in a wealthy household to support their brother's education. When they saw that their brother's reputation was ruined and he only had half a life left, they vowed to pay with blood. The two sneaked into Liu's house incognito, starting from the bottom as a maid, instigating internal fighting and intercepting evidence of corruption, which caused the Liu family to panic and the business to collapse. Coinciding with the election in the palace, the two sisters entered the palace under the identity of the Liu family. They entered the second prince's and the third prince's mansion respectively according to their minds. They were promoted from palace maids to concubines step by step. They used the power of the royal family to overthrow the Liu family's former backers in the harem. At the same time, Wen Jing worked hard to recuperate his health, and took the imperial examination again to become the top candidate in high school. He cooperated with his two sisters in the court and exposed the evidence of the Liu family's crimes to the public. In the end, all the Liu family members were ransacked, their enemies were brought to justice, the two sisters were named imperial concubines, Wen Jing was granted a good relationship, and the family was honored, and the whole family was finally fulfilled.
