Description

Yaoying transmigrated into a novel.

In the chaotic and troubled times, many nations were at war. Her father happened to be the most powerful of those vying for supremacy, her brother turning out to be the male lead that finally dominated the Central Plains.

As the male lead’s younger sister, Yaoying was ready to accept this benefit that came without her having to lift a finger.

But it turned out that the male lead hated her to the bone, going as far as to have her marry the sixty-year-old grassland tribal chief in place of the female lead.

Yaoying was forced to marry. Wolves in front, tigers in the back—beasts surrounding her—all coveting the lovely-as-a-flower Chinese princess.

At the moment of crisis, the novel’s young and legendary lord who was destined to die young passed through with his troops.

To escape from their clutches, the trembling Yaoying pointed at the sickly lord: This princess fell in love with you at first sight. If you won’t marry, I’ll seek you out with a dowry!

The lord’s subordinates paled with alarm: Princess mustn’t speak so casually! Our king is a monk, a noble-blooded Buddha’s son!

Yaoying, with a face full of grievances: This princess doesn’t disdain that you’re a monk. In life, I am your person; in death, I am your ghost!

Monk: ….

From then on, the tale of the Buddha’s son and the Chinese princess began to circulate through the grasslands.

Monk whose reputation couldn’t be cleared even if he plunged into the Yellow River: ….

Note : The title refers to an expression that for friends, family, and lovers separated far away, moonlit nights would make them miss each other more.

I love everything about this novel and I love how it portrayed her struggle in this society. Especially how the author showed the power struggle between the princes and how his brother tried his best to support her and their mother. I also want to punch the OG!FL in the face that s*upid btch. She's always crying and sobbing and making a fuss about how her life was such a sob story then run away and in turn it affected other people.

Fair warning: The plot is realistic. Our FL sacrificed... more>> too much without using or stepping on anyone else. Barbarians are barbarians with r*pe, robbing and all that shizz.

Spoiler

As a woman she was bartered to an old man outside of the border to prevent a war that ultimately still happened because of underhanded schemes of the villain.

[collapse]

Anyway I love her. It made me cry a couple of times and this novel is one of the top ones on my list. This has a heavier plot that Eight Treasure Trousseau. <<less

I'm so glad I've picked this novel. It's the best novel I've read here so far, and I've read quite a lot of novels !

The ML is the best I have found, handsome of course, with all the qualities of a main lead, but without this dominant /overbearing trait we find sometimes in novels of this genre here. His growth is amazingly written.

And the MC has such a good personality. You'll never find her annoying or too arrogant/selfish.

I loved this novel, I preferred the translated chapters of course (because... more>> it is so well written... 😔) but I mtled the rest of the novel. I'd love to re read it once all the chapters are translated, because some parts MTLed were a bit confusing. <<less

I once read somewhere that the antagonist will always seem like a villain from the protagonist's perspective. This book just fully encompasses that.

(Disclaimer is that this review is based on my feelings, so what I feel maybe different from every other person.)

The MC is very smart and and just so lovely yk. But I wanna start with some supporting characters that I wanna punch in the face.

... more>>
Spoiler

Li Xuanzhen, this mf's hatred for anyone with the Xie name makes my head boil. Although I'm seeing some changes where he'd sometimes let the MC off. He's still an a*s overall.

Princess Fukang, MS GURL WHY DO YOU KEEP IMPLICATING OUR MC EVEN THOUGH YOU DON'T MEAN IT LIKE AAAAA. She's not a green tea character btw she's just idiotic like when she got into a deal with the Hu tribe, she didn't even think of how the Hu tribe might cheat her out the deal. She just straight up went, " this 60 year old grandpa said I can flee from this country if I marry him. No need to think of how I'll be passed around like a family heirloom to every other tribe leader after this old grandpa."

I think her character really shows a contrast between the MC and her. I don't even know how Li Xuanzhen fell for her.

Emperor Li De, he's a somewhat good monarch but he doesn't deserve to be a father and husband. He's just terrible and calculating I wanna punch him over and over.

[collapse]

And then with the supporting characters I love,

Spoiler

Xie Qing, the bodyguard - he's not the male lead but like SIR MARRY ME. He's a loyal man and I just like him so much.

MC's brother surnamed LI that I forgot the name of (I'm not good with names.) HE'S THE BEST BROTHER YOU COULD HAVE. He protects his I'll mother and does his best to protect the MC. He's not fighting for the throne and just wants to keep his little family safe from Li Xuanzhen and every other bad person in the palace. At first I was sceptical of him cause the rumors did say he was ruthless and uncaring (which is kinda true but if his family's protection could be secured, he could be 100x more ruthless just to keep the MC and their I'll mother safe.)

[collapse]

The MC Yaoying is a really intelligent girl. She's also kind and AAAA I love her.

I can't go deep yet since I think each chapter is divided into 2 by the translator so chapter 57 maybe chapter 28 in the raws idk¯\_ (ツ) _/¯. <<less

I dropped this, but not because it is bad novel.

... more>>
Spoiler

I really did like the female lead a lot, and I might still give it a try in the future. However, the reason why I dropped this is because I really liked the whole triangle sibling relation in the beginning of the novel so when the female lead left her home and the male lead started to appear, I lost interest because I really wanted the author to finish that part of the storyline. I might also not love a male lead who is a monk. I'm just not really used to it.

This was actually good, because it was good, it made me diff again to find the next novel to read.

This novel is good, the FL was smart, but not the usuall smart, badass FL like the typicall chiness novel. The one that usually in chiness novel was unbeatable, tho sometimes I love it, because it was like woman's dream ro be that badass. FL was also badass, smart, but the story written more real, she has her ups an down, she smart but not overbearing, she was badasd but not... more>> superior, she was superior but in more real way. She is straitforward but not cross the line, her love was pure and glad that this one was not shy one nor the aggressive one. Everythink was on point.

ML was great, I love him in both of his identites, and it was ok for me too if turned out he only the Sultan.

I am also religious person tho I wasn't buddhist, but more or less I knew about it. I am glaf he was more trye to him self, it better be honest to yourself. In a way, I think they were a soulmate, since the ML never had a change to had an option. His way of life was chosen by others and sfter that he thought that the right path for him.

I often skip chapter in novel, because kots of them were good to read but to draggy, this one, I was religiously read every chapter. The character building, the plot, the chemistry, it all was good. And perfect with a bit of snu2 in the end just to complete the chemist between the them.

I hope it will translate until it finished, tho I read it through mtl after that, we all know, mtl had the tendency to made you frustated. Try to read it. It wad good, it slow build romance, but you will drawn to the story, because you would enjoyed the process. <<less

What a masterpiece. The author managed to craft a compelling tale about people who struggled to survive and protect what was precious to them, preserving hope and kindness despite the helplessness and ugliness of life that befall them. The plot was cruel at times but was never suffocating. And by the end of the story, it left not only a satisfying feeling but also tranquility - the aftertaste that lingers for a long more. Truly one of the best stories I've read.

I just want to thank the translator and editor for translating this wonderful novel so beautifully. Excellent work so a 👍 to them.

The novel itself is intriguing and I must say the plot is rare not your usual CN novel. I was hooked up from the first chapter. The author wrote it in a detailed and well explained manner so its very understandable. The characters are also consistent on how they should be. And every characters are unique. I love how this novel really touches my feeling. I really cried... more>> for the FL and her brother. I love her bravery, intelligent and how kind hearted she is. The ML so far did live to what I'm expecting. I enjoy the the journey and excited for more. I recommend this novel to read. <<less

This is definitely going into my all time favorites list. The story was great, the characters were great. I cried multiple times at the angst but don’t worry it’s a HE.

Very good. Very slow romance progress. The MC and ML properly meets around ch100 (yeah, half of the story). Both are very reasonable, logical, with critical thinking and crisis management. The weakness attached is very burdensome to the point I worried any of them would have to die once to be reincarnated and continue the story.

Very distressed family relationship spiritually and mentally. The mc's father is the biggest bad luck in her and her brother lives. He is so heartless and I wonder if the glory he wanted ever real.

The... more>> place and time in the story is very interesting. I have not meet much novel using this timeline. <<less

Oh My God, I found this gem last week and cant stop reading it. A few years experience reading alot of cnovel, this one became one of the best book i've ever read online. The story was written so beautiful with well-fleshed out characters. The MC is such a strong and smart character despite her weak body, she plan carefully with the benefit of knowing the future (but this thing was not overly used like other transmigration book trope), it's just realistic enough for her conditon. And the male lead... more>> is just incredible with his complex character. Their love story is so slow, really really slow so if you like fluffy and light heart novel, this one is not for you... but their love story is so poignant and will make you root for them. I shed tears a few time for the female lead, thanks God this book have happy ending.

Only 1/3 of the book have been translated, so I finished this book using google translate lol. Gosh I will re-read it again when the translation is completed <<less

This female lead is my favorite heroine. She is gentle yet willing to take risks for her loved ones. She is not all powerful yet shows a levelheaded maturity when facing adversity that is very enjoyable. She knows she can't do much for others but that doesn't stop her from trying, yet she doesn't take foolish risks. I love her personality. So far the male lead has not appeared he has only been mentioned but I eagerly look forward to their relationship. The story has unexpected twists and turns, it... more>> has caught me off guard when I expected something to happen that didn't. I expect an awesome power couple because I won't tolerate a weak male lead for my girl. The translation is beautiful, it's truly doing justice to the story. Thank you for the updates translator! <<less

The novel itself was particularly well made, albeit the translation also did the justice towards this gem! I love how the plot progresses each chapter plus its sad flashbacks. The romance hasn't introduced as of now but that what's it makes interesting! Since in the chapters it more on how our FL (Yaoying) would survive on the novel she have transmigrated into and avoid clashing with the crown prince. I also like the dynamic of yaoying and her brother, they both sacrificed/risk each other lives for them to survive to... more>> that scum king and their 'fate'.

Spoiler

[/The Xie Family was the most pitiful and yet one of the highlights of this story. Their sacrifices to save and help people as well as no matter young the sons in Xie family they will go with their fathers in battlefield and help them fight in wars which is so sad at the same time a heroic thing for them to do. The scum emperor (yaoying's father) have promised to take care of yaoying's mother but due to a scheming and certain individuals, the Xie family was pushed into brink and only yaoying and her brother survived. ]

[collapse]

You'll never get bored of this novel as every chapter is worth reading and every chapters evoke sympathy and admiration as a reader as Tiffany18 said. It's neither sad or exciting. The FL is one of my favorite since her intelligence makes me go 'wow' at her despite her weak constitution. I love how she thinks through and her love for her brother. <<less

First and foremost I want to give it up to the translator for such an awesome translation. Translation is clear and concise and easy to read. Thoroughly surprised at how much I enjoy this especially considering 50 plus chapters I don't think we've seen the male lead yet. The main female lead is strong (not a physical way) and smart. She is someone that I root for even when she's up against the odds. I'm excited to see where the story goes.

I love the FL she’s brave and was able to fight through all the intimidation from the men of power and rise despite being in a horrible position.

I love the ML as well. He’s responsible and bears all the hardships. He’s also one of the most pitiful MLs I’ve ever seen.

And, their love is just so sweet going through all the difficulties and their own identities. ❤️❤️❤️

Finally!! I have a feeling the MC will

meet the ML soon. I’m anticipating the scene from the summary of her proposing to a monk: “In life, I am your person, in death, I am your ghost.”

So, I am not good at writing reviews bit I will try. And sorry for the bad English in advance.

I realy like this novel. The Autor dosent let the MC do as she please, she has to follow the original story. If she try to change something she will be punish with pain. So the MC has to look of ways to make little changes without destroying the Storyline.

The family Drama Level is realy high. The father and eldes brother, the emporer and crown prince, are realy hatful. And... more>> the MC and her biological elder brother and the Mother are constantly supress by them and the MC and her brother can only relay on them self.

The female lead of the original Story is equal hateful. She schemes againts the whole family of the MC and the MC is the one who has to face the consequences.

To the ML I cant say anything because he hasnt show up yet.

And I would like to say that the translator does a awsome work. It is easy to read and understood.

Also, if you like transmigrating Storys and a lot of Drama, than this is your novle. <<less

His father the Emperor is the biggest villian so far who had cheated her mother abandoned our FL and his brother because he thought it was the FL mother who caused the death of his first wife

.

Our FL tries her best to overcome every challenges and difficulty and pave the path for her family to stay alive.

Inspite of her health issue she tries to do her best to protect the female race as they were most vulnerable during the ancient times.

Lastly as other people have commented the novel is heavy I have almost cried in every chapter and can't wait for next update and I really love our translator Mich for translating such amazing novel.😘🔥 <<less

Aside from the stellar translation skills on display, so far this novel has been very well crafted. Our heroine is very intelligent, and it shows with how she deals with the way the world is intent on forcing the story to continue. However, the utter sincerity of her bond with her brother, and the lengths she’ll go for him even long after it’d have been better to cut him loose, is the true selling point so far.
