Let me just say it straight: the stakes in this book are absolutely terrifying and the author knows it. Ji Zhaohe transmigrates into a cannon fodder character who, according to the synopsis, gets everyone in her family executed when the female protagonist seizes the throne. 'Probably in another dozen or so chapters, she'll seize power, overthrow the dynasty, and establish a new reign.' Do you understand how much pressure is on this girl? She doesn't have a system. She doesn't have magical powers. She has a medical degree and the personality of someone who stayed up all night doing lab work. Her internal monologue says it best: 'With my brain, I'd probably be dead within days of transmigrating.' And then—BAM—the Empress forces her to marry Minister Shen's son because of political maneuvering. The stakes just went from 'survive the female protagonist' to 'navigate imperial politics while married to a stranger you didn't choose.' The conflict is multi-layered. External: the female protagonist is coming for the throne and the Ji family will fall. Internal: Ji Zhaohe has to maintain the Third Highness's reputation while secretly being a completely different person. Political: the Empress sees this marriage as a way to prevent an alliance between Grand Commandant Qian and Minister Shen. And interpersonal: Young Master Shen, who was sick last year and deliberately avoided the Spring Banquet, is now trapped in her bed and forced to marry her. He didn't ask for this. She didn't ask for this. The tension is incredible because everyone is playing a game where the rules keep changing. Ji Zhaohe's only advantage is that she knows the plot. But knowing the plot and being able to change it are two very different things. How long until her knowledge becomes a liability? How long before someone notices she's not the same person? I'm already sweating.
Great read
love the series. if Victor doesn't get a happy ending though in some form i think my heart will crack.
I like this novel very much so touching
Waiting for book 3. Absolutely loved!
The spelling and grammar made it hard to read, but the overall story was good.
I'm sorry but this book makes ZERO sense. I hate the characters specially Leonora. I mean how stupid do you have to be to be use like garbage by your mate. the worst think is that this book had potential. whoever wrote this needs to go back and rewrite it. cuz is BAD.
I hope Fergus can finally die
The former book cover is finer dear author !

Really like the book, once you start can't stop reading except for the grammatical errors
