[15-day revenge countdown: revenge and punishing scumbags + tearing apart a gold-digging husband + strong female lead + absolutely no forgiveness + black-lotus matriarch [emoji] + patient, unhinged, loyal Duke + secret identities + courtly face-slapping]
After seven years of marriage, Su Yuer lost the ability to have children for the sake of her husband's career. He used that as an excuse to take a second wife.
Everyone thought Su Yuer would make a scene, but she calmly accepted it all.
No one knew she'd already decided to leave.
On the third day, she burned the examination essay her husband treasured, then found his lover's love poem among the ashes.
On the seventh day, she tore up the Marquis estate's account books in the street. The million in missing funds sent the Censorate into an uproar.
On the fifteenth day, she tore down the ancestral tablets with her own hands. As paper offerings fluttered through the air, she smiled and said,
“The title you bought with the military achievements of my Su family. Do you think you're worthy of honoring your ancestors?”
Later, she left with nothing, cast love aside, inherited her master's legacy, and climbed step by step to the highest position.
Wearing the phoenix cloak bestowed by the late emperor, she sat beside the dragon throne as the newly appointed Grand General Who Pacifies the Nation knelt and presented her with the tiger tally.
Her scumbag husband regretted everything. Groveling on the ground, he grabbed her skirt. “Yuer, let's start over...”
She crushed his fingertips under her heel. “I bear the title of Pacifying the Nation. You will address me as Your Highness.”
Su Yuer: You only get to be young once. You only get one chance to tell a man from a dog. Divorce isn't the end. I'm changing lanes and becoming an ancestor they all have to worship!
