Not a long story and what they attempted to cover in the 10 chapters wasn't particularly ambitious. Basically the story of a couple that's united after 10 years, instantly falling in love with each other (for the male lead at least) and a few obstacles in their way.

There's not much to say aside from that fact that it was rather uneventful, although the romance did happen almost instantly, and wasn't particularly earth shattering or believable. But the overall story was pleasant enough and didn't leave readers wanting more or particularly... more>> disappointed. Good to kill an hour or two if you have time to spare. <<less

The description doesn't do this story justice. It just gave the whole story away. If possible just don't read the description. This is a great story that isn't super long, but is still a decent length. Sweet story that was decently paced if not a little fast. Mo Lan is a great female lead. She's extremely clever and not afraid to strike back. Chen Quan Ren is an OK male lead, if not a little rough around the edges type. I mean, he literally spent ten years surrounded by war... more>> and men. Our female lead spent ten years being groomed to be the perfect madam of a house........ you can't expect the guy to be a refined gentleman or the girl to be a battle hardened warrior. They still find their love in the middle of it all. The ending is SUPPOSED to be a shocker, but the description totally ruined it.
Spoiler

Yes, the spoiler was the fact that she was the long lost daughter of the enemy general. She was originally an orphan that the male lead's family picked up and took fancy to. Turned out, she was the enemy general's daughter and now the war between the two kingdoms are called off because the general of the enemy country was, like their main general. And the male lead, he was renowned as a war genius, so yeah. One girl, that's all it took to end the war.

[collapse]
I only gave this a 4 out of 5 because I wished that this story could have been longer. The story was pushed a little fast for my tastes. I just wished it slowed down and really took the time to express those sweet moments where the two leads were falling deeper in love with each other. <<less

It's childish and logical inconsistencies all over the place.

E.g

... more>>
Spoiler

There was a banquet when the General returned and she was playing Guqin for the guests? Uhm, she's the main wife, not some performer. And what happened to segregation of males and females that she can just show herself in front of his subordinates and perform for them?

[collapse]

Spoiler

She roams around without bodyguards. A lady from a prestigious family? Really?

[collapse]

Spoiler

She goes to the palace for the first time but meets the emperor directly and not the womanfolk of the palace? How inappropriate. It's like the empress does not exist at all

[collapse]

Spoiler

They being lovey dovey in front of foreign envoys and discussing their personal affairs in public? Again, inappropriate.

[collapse]

ML doesn't sound romantic, he sounds like a sleaze. I don't know what makes him special from other male characters in this novel, they are all smitten and lustful after the female lead's gorgeous face. That's it.

FL is so so, she's okay, but she does a lot of inappropriate things for a lady at in the ancient time, but that's just the author I guess. <<less

There are some good stuff, but overall very bland story telling. There's a lack of flow, events are unremarkably described, simply solved and just kind of stumble out one after another.

Female lead strong-willed and wise. Male lead is crude, country bumpkin-ish, spent a good deal of his life in the army but most immediately after coming back he turns 180 degree into someone experienced at shameless courting. He has an impressive, firm mindset towards love. However both don't leave a strong impression. My favorite character is only the grandma.

Awesome <3 The story was perfect although there's a bit drama, the story is really sweet and heartwarming. At first you may curse the male lead but in later chapters he's a real sweetheart, the female lead is very smart and beautiful and the grandmother is funny ^, ^.

This story actually begins with a good footing. I'm intrigued to see how two persons under paper-only marriage will amend their relationship. Even more looking forward to it since it follows the classic hates-into-love and/or mismatched-pairing cliches.

Unfortunately, though, as the story goes, it can't live up to my expectation. While I think the plot heads into right direction, the flow feels like disjointed. I just can't follow the character's behavioural and emotional change.

Maybe it is because this story has too much things on hand while only being 10 chapters length.... more>> Or maybe it's due to the weak storytelling. I personally think the latter problem contributes more. <<less

A good story with a solid plot and happy ending. Leaves a pleasant impression but not something you'd keep thinking about for a long time. Not much angst or frustration and can be considered a light read.

For a novel with only ten chapters this was quite well written. I wouldn't mind a longer and more detailed version of this story, it has so much potential. It is sad that the romance was a little rushed because of it's limited chapters, however because of the well written story, characters and plot it was a really nice read. Our FL is strong, independent and won't let anyone bully her and the ML knows his limits and proves his love for FL.

I'm saying this again, but I really want... more>> a more prolonged and detailed version of this novel. It has so much room to grow and I can already see the making of a great novel out of it. 10/10 would recommend <<less

A pleasant novel that is easy to read. The conflicts were not prolonged and was easily solved. Shame that it has only 10 chapters.

Simple..

Really simple

This kind of story is not heavy... You won't find scheme, bad people, etc.

It is really simple story, include the plot and the conflict. But I like how the writer describe the characters, they're good people.

If I could, I would give this negative stars.
Spoiler

the relationship felt so fake and in-genuine. He first for her good looks and then appreciated her intelligence, which is fine and whatever. But then he had the nerve to be all happy and egotistical about the fact that she felt jealous about a girl from his army that he can just casually touch and hug—something that would be the biggest taboo in that time. He doesn’t care that she feel insecure but feels happy that she got angry. What kind of husband is that? He abandoned here because he didn’t like “weak and dainty” girls. And then did even have the brain cells to comfort his wife and make her feel secure in the relationship. All he says, “yeah, I didn’t like girls like that before but now I like my wife because even though she’s weak, she’s smart”—that’s not enough after everything he put her through. I hate overconfident ML like this. Give me an over bearing ML that still respects the FL and makes her feel secure and cared for. Give me childish ML even as long as he knows not push the FL boundaries and genuinely loves her. But this kind of ML who is so over confident and treats FL like a doll-I will want transmigrate into novel myself and stab the ML.

Well. I am quite speechless after reading this, and I’m not sure if it’s in a good or bad way. For one, this story is terrible as a short story. It would have been much better if the plot and characters were more developed as a longer novel. We don’t really get to see a clear process of them getting to know and love each other, and the ending falls flat because of that.

Furthermore, there are so many plot holes. So many. Their relationship wasn’t all that great either. The... more>> author emphasises the female lead’s beauty all the time in the perspective of the male lead, so it feels quite shallow. It’s also mentioned a lot that the male lead preferred “strong women who didn’t look weak and a normal beauty either.” I found this to be a little misogynistic, as he also mentioned that he couldn’t stand women who did embroidery, played instruments, etc. I couldn’t bring myself to like the male lead.

Female lead is okay, but a little too perfect for me. She’s one of the most beautiful women, smart, witty, every other similar quality. Bit too unrealistic.

Overall, I would rate this novel as a 3.5 or just a 3. It was fun just reading it in a blur as it would only ten chapters, but the characters and plot weren’t very well written.

The translator has done a great job, thank you! <<less

it's good. Kinda cliche but good. It's far from perfect but good enough to make me happy while reading it. The conflicts are make sense and I like the twist too. Too sad it only has 10 chapters bcs it has potential to be longer. But overall it was a good read.

I couldn't like this story much although it's one of my favorite genre. It indeed had many of its sweet moments but I still find it a little bland. Also, I don't like ML. He was so arrogant and always had prejudice towards women who couldn't wield a sword. FL was one of the woman that he despised because of his prejudice and he refused to acknowledge and meet her for 10 years.

But then after he met her again, he almost instantly fell in with FL because of her wits... more>> and intelligence. It's like licking his own saliva after he spitted it. And instead of trying to make it up to FL first for all his neglet all these years, he instantly took her to bed. I know it was FL's duty as a wife but I still find it a bir repulsing for ML to do that after what he had done to FL.

FL too was too softhearted. I don't know what made her fell in love with ML since he looked down on her much since the beginning of their marriage. Even if she didn't knew her real identity,

Spoiler

She was an illegitimate child of her country's princess and the enemy country's great general. In the other words, she was the current emperor's relative.

The great general instantly acknowledge her after he knew about MC's identity. But as a father who loved her only daughter so much, I don't know why he could easily hand FL over to ML. With his network, he should know that ML treated FL badly for 10 years. If I were him, I would directly take FL away to his own country and find her a better man.

[collapse]

she mustn't lack of a suitor since she was so beautiful and smart, let alone if her real identity was revealed, she could even marry a prince. I really prefer she chose someone better because she deserved it.

FL was a bit likeable compared to ML but sometimes, I also find that she was a bit reckless and rash. She knew she couldn't do martial arts but she still recklessly went around alone with her maid without any protection. She almost got into trouble more that once because of it.

Aside of the unlikable ML, I also find so many things that shouldn't happen in ancient times in this story and made this story less realistic.

Spoiler
  • ML often helped his subordinate's wife giving birth when there was no midwife around. Although there was no midwife around, it was still inappropriate for ML as a man and as a general directly helped his subordinate's wife giving birth. Even there was no midwife, there must be still other women around, right? So, it really didn't make sense for ML to step in.
  • FL played musical instrument in front of ML's subordinates at the welcome banquet after ML returning to the capital. With her status as a noble wife of ML, how could she entertain his husband's subordinates and even showed them her face? And what was worse, ML let her did that.
  • No matter how close ML with his subordinates, they should still act respectful in ML's mansion. But no, they impudently talked about ML and FL behind their back and almost ruined their relationship. But even after knowing that, ML didn't punish his subordinates although they talked behind his back and hurted FL's feeling. ML also once let one of his subordinate entered his chamber when FL was there. Even FL wasn't there, it was still inappropriate for ML to let his subordinate enter his private chamber.
  • ML hugged his female subordinate when he greeted her. Although ML treated that female like his brother, it was still inappropriate for ML to hug her since they were a different gender. Moreover, he knew that the female had a feeling for him.
  • ML and FL acted lovey dovey at the banquet in front of emperor and other country's envoys. It was really disrespectful of them.

This is a refreshing kind of novel different from other ancient china novels with a lot of scheming characters. A nice read to take a break with after reading novels with complicated plots.

I feel like I would enjoy this much more if there was some smut hehe

the story is way too cliché. Nothing new. Also the ML is unappealing and undeserving of MC's loyalty. MC should've just divorced him. Don't bother to read.

A cute fluffy short story thats good to satisfy your fluff craving. The plot is simple and without much drama, pretty much a just a smooth ride of which a couple who was married but never really had the chance to even know each other and was separated for 10 years, try to build up the loss time. I gotta say I admire the FL more than the ML though, she was cool and didn't harbor resentment or hatred when ML basically threw her aside and ran away. She was... more>> such a strong independent and capable woman. <<less

A good novel, very short so the Story is quick. The characters are the best point especially the romance. The FL is cute and smart and the ML strong and cute because of the discovery of love. But it's not the best story out there.
