But it's still a bit annoying when she kept getting hurt for more than 100 chapters and met physician more than meeting ML.

Her cheat was a bit cute. It's a cactus that could act as a wiretap and could also predict the outcome of some events. It also could communicate with other cactus around the world.

Such as Luo Yunzheng and Ji Zhangsu. Both loved Lin Qianzi to the bones. Luo Yunzheng even had a child with her but she still run away from both of them and chose to be with Duan Yunyin, the enemy prince who only wanted to use her for assassinating ML. It's kind of sad too because they didn't have a happy ending like other supporting ML. Luo Yunzheng lost his child (thanks to Lin Qianzi) and didn't end up with anyone else till the end of the story. And Ji Zhangsu got banished by his family because they were afraid to get implicated by Lin Qianzi who was Ji Zhangsu's ex wife.

For example, she has knowledge of how to make grenade/bombs because her cactus is like a Google index, and she knows the plot of the novel, but she still has to figure out how to escape her captives in one piece and even with the grenade knowledge she is using gunpowder in a logical way — like how ancient China did. It’s not like they brought completely new weapons and technology into the ancient era, if that makes sense.

The MC comforted him when he broke up with the og mc

Author seems to be out for blood for original FL and had her r*ped by almost everyone and pinned it down to her despicable character. At first, Original FL was really dumb and naive which lead to her early demise. But ofc she was a victim since she was r****. A pity that the author didn't treat her well and just utterly destroyed her in the end.

Author really like vigorous men that are out to r*** their women. I think FL was pretty much r*** but the author had a leeway saying it was a "rule" that she wouldn't get out of bed after 3 days whenever they'd do it.. Also, since this is a CN, a lot of aphrodisiacs were used leading to r*** for various characters. I also have to point out that one of the villainess said why should men be the only one who can f*** around while women can't? I totally agree with her but since this was set in the ancient times ofc this didn't conform to society.

No, annoying side FC to spoil their romance or creating misunderstanding

the ml's friend and the man with the split personality who became one of my faves

(another transmigrator, Su Yun)

towards the end I wished it showed more family moments or life after all the chaos. Or them as rulers.

but somehow to me, the story kinda got a liiiiittle stale towards the parts where the FL got pregnant and after she gave birth to their kid and then she went off to save her husband and all that jazz... it's a good way to make the plot longer but I think it's just my preferences that the FL did so much, gotten hurt so much for the ML and yeah, the ML did loved her dearly but it's just kinda puts me off that the FL is going through such trouble for the ML.. I just feel bad for her uwu and also... the war part just kinda not interesting to me lol after the whole war thing, the plot picks up where the original FL shows up again and leads up to one thing to another. the antagonists in the story mainly focuses on how some female antagonists are irredeemable but the male antagonists somehow deserves the sympathy and whatnot, its weird.

During the start, the FL wanted to seduce the supporting ML and run off with him despite being married to the ml. That was a bit off putting but after analysing the situation, I realised that concubines in that era were really treated like s*aves, as the FL constantly said in the novel. Added with the impending future of her character being beat to death and the fact that she had no support or an idea that the ML favoured her... it honestly made sense. Plus the ml's actions towards had been a bit forceful during the beginning, but then again... he was a war lord who had little to no interactions with women and was constantly exposed to the villainous schemes of women. So it was inevitable that he didn't know how to treat woman well. I also found the antagonist to be a bit lacklustre, they were disappointing and put up a measly little fight. I had a lot of expectations for them since one was reborn, and the other was transmigrated from the same era and place as the fl. She even had a higher status than the FL in the 'modern' world. The cacti thing was pretty interesting, they played a good role in the story because of the fl's original career. The plot wasn't too interesting, had a few cliches and there were a few plot holes concerning the antagonists, the vortex thing, the gunpowder introduction etc... Overall though, it was a lovely read. 8/10 would recommend.
