Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Song Yuanzhi is reborn as the heroine of an old, bloody, and abusive novel. According to the plot, she will be taken away by Xuanyuan Yu, the son of Nan’an Marquis, as a substitute for Bai Yueguang, and then repeatedly tortured her, due which she finally committed su*cide. After her death, Xuanyuan Yu was in great pain, and then he found out that he had already fallen in love with her, so he went crazy and killed all his concubines and Bai Yueguang, and spent his whole life looking for a substitute, suffering for his whole life.

This plot is speechless!

Song Yuanzhi ran away from him at night, and before Xuanyuan Yu could do anything to her, she quickly accepted the marriage proposal from the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.

Zhenbei Marquis Lu Shaoyou was the emperor’s favorite, and he was successful at a young age. He had made great military achievements at the age of twenty and was the god of war in the hearts of the people of the Rong Dynasty. Even the arrogant Xuanyuan Yu had to kneel down and show respect in front of Lu Shaoyou. The only negative point is that in the recent border war, Lu Shaoyou was unfortunately killed in battle and his body was not found. This also means that Song Yuanzhi will be a widow as soon as she enters his house.

In this regard, Song Yuanzhi expressed her satisfaction: her husband is gone, so she doesn’t have to worry about him cheating; she can adopt a child from the other subclans to raise them, so she doesn’t even have to go through the gates of hell for giving birth; under the filial piety, she doesn’t have to worry about raising an ungrateful person. A leisurely retirement life is waiting for her, which is great! However, what Song Yuanzhi didn’t expect was that her fiancé, who was said to have died in battle, actually came back alive!

To be honest I think this is a well written short novel that tackles well-known tropes for novels in ancient settings.

Tropes: Transmigration, evil stepmother snd useless family, yandere oriML antagonist, “my husband is supposed to be dead but he’s not!” ML, throne ascension drama.

FL finds herself transmigrated into a s*upid short novel that her enemy wrote about her having a terrible life. After FL enters the world, she’s determined to change her ending. That’s the basic premise.

For a short novel, FL is well written with a distinct personality. She looks... more>> frail and demure but she can actually hit back hard and is pretty vengeful imo. ML is a total green flag who dotes on the FL.

The revenge plot is done well with enough faceslapping by the FL herself to make me satisfied. ML also helps out.

The minor political drama is not so intense as the antagonists are pretty dumb but it’s still okay to read.

All in all, I think this is a good enough short novel to read to pass the time. <<less

This is quite unrealistic to the time. If you have gotten used to reading novels like Eight treasure trousseau or to be a virtuous wife, it seems a bit too much. (Think DC vs. Marvel). That being said it is quite an enjoyable read. If I had just started reading Cnovels it would have put it in my favourites.

Enjoyable though short. Good quality translation.

FL transmigrated into a story as a tragic character written by a plastic friend to torture the FL for not lending money. But karmic justice prevails with happy ending for the FL. Plot twist was that the so called author also transmigrated and had a miserable end.

For a short story this one was an absolute hit! It incorporated popular tropes in a lighthearted manner. Everything was tastefully done so it didn’t drag on forever making the reader tired of all the tr*sh talk. All the bad people had their comeuppance and all the righteous people got a good future. I love the relationship between the FL and her MIL. My only regret is the Emperor.... more>>
Spoiler

He was like a grumpy uncle but he really disappointed me by falling into the common traps of emperors.

[collapse]

Overall, this is a relatively smooth and easy read if you want the usual novel elements without things being dragged out in angst for 100’s of chapters. <<less
