Summary
Xiao Yanfei, after transmigrating into a book, believed that her identity was not simple, as evidenced by the following:
1. She was a concubine’s daughter in the Marquis’s household, but her appearance was unparalleled.
2. Her legitimate sister was the female lead, currently engaged to the Crown Prince.
3. She maintained a good friendship with the Second Prince, a villain character with an abundance of buffs.
According to the laws of transmigration, she was undoubtedly an extremely important… villainous character.
And she would sacrifice her intelligence, dignity, and even her life for the breathtaking love of the male and female leads in critical moments.
At first, Xiao Yanfei just wanted to keep a low profile, avoiding “sacrificing” her life and achieving the worst possible ending.
Later, she discovered that the original host had been switched at birth with the female lead, and she had even considered the villain as her birth mother. Under the “earnest guidance” of her stepmother, she willingly endured any hardship for the sake of the female lead.
Meanwhile, the reborn female lead took over the original host’s identity, trampling on her tragic past and enacting a “breathtaking love” with the Crown Prince!
Xiao Yanfei: …Tired.
She rolled up her sleeves, sharpened her blade, and was determined to tear apart this melodramatic plot and set things right!
The Second Prince, with a stack of villainous buffs: Do you need help?
Xiao Yanfei: Yes.
*
Gu Feichi, the eldest son of Duke Weiguo, was unruly and unconventional. He conquered the western barbarians and pacified the northern tribes. His military prowess was unmatched, and he opened up vast territories.
With half of his face concealed by a mask and a scarlet robe billowing, he extended his hand to her amid thousands of troops and horses: “From now on…”
“Those who follow you will prosper, those who oppose you will perish!”

No wonder I liked this novel from just the summary and even more so from ch1! The author is great.
Kuroneko_chan
Wow!! So they were aiming to frame the OG body owner!!!

Your translations read very smoothly, yet still retain that ancient Chinese nuance. Awesome work! I’m excited to keep reading.
All Things Fluff
Thank you! Happy Reading ?

I’m really enjoying the translation so far, so thanks for your hard work.
I always love reading the MTL while I wait. Do you happen to know where I can find a non paywalled raw text of this story?
All Things Fluff
Hi! This is where I get the raw text: https://www.luoyexiaoshuo.com/iuo/17115/

Concubine Cui is so insidious! She spews lies without batting an eye. She actually schemed to send the OG FL to the countryside, probably thinking forever but fortunately she was able to return. I’m pretty sure the whole incense thing was Concubine Cui’s doing, in her attempt to frame the OG FL. Now I can’t wait when she is exposed. Just feel sorry for Concubine Cui’s real daughter, though.
Kuroneko_chan
One down! So it sounds like the half sister is no good either. Ok, she is also on the list to take down. So 2 to go. ??
Kuroneko_chan
Oh ho!! So it is true, the fake legit daughter knows the truth!!! No wonder in the past timeline she had no hesitations on having her killed!
Kuroneko_chan
Ooo, the meet in the temple with hidden identity trope.
Kuroneko_chan
??
Kuroneko_chan
Ugh, another worthless POS husband/father. Guess the ones who favors the scheming concubines over the wife usually are. I hope they divorce bc it sounds like Yin shi never wanted to marry him in the first place if not for that accident.
P. B.
Yeah he disdains her for trying to marry up, but it sounds like his house was on the decline and he needed a suger mama in order to bribe his way into relevancy. Wouldn’t surprise me if the old madam xiao had a hand in it, seeing as she can easily sell a daughter for glory and wealth
Kuroneko_chan
?? trash needs to be taken out.
Kuroneko_chan
Don’t mind the comments!
Gu Feichi completes taking out the trash ?
Stronoxsar
Do your thing I like the comments.
Kuroneko_chan
Oh yh, that fake legitimate daughter def knows she was switched with the real daughter.
Chronos5884
She Does and I think she deserves a sack with her name on it.
Kuroneko_chan
Oooo!!!! So that is what it is. Another rebirth who decided to take the path of evil.
Kuroneko_chan
My guess, once the POS father and grandmother hears of this, they will demand they send Yanfei as they only care about their family’s status, not caring about a “concubine” daughter.
ItzG
ain’t no way they just jumped that guy lmaooo
ItzG
awww that’s super unfortunate. thanks for all your work up till now!
Banny
Thanks for trying and I hope that someone will pick it up soon.

I had this same problem last week when you took this series, I couldn’t stand it and I went to see the raw ones, but I could only find up to the 28th, Because no matter which page I went to, all of them were in payment form?. I tried to look for it on MTL at least, but they haven’t added it yet, thanks for everything anyway. ?
Marie Claire
I bought all the chapters on jjwxc but I don’t know how to download them
If anyone wants to continue the translation of the novel and needs the chapters, you can contact me
All Things Fluff
Hi!I think the words on jjwxc can’t be copied. You can only screenshot them and extract it from image to text.

you know, I appreciate the little anecdote about the “mad” scholar. So often when the story uses a failed transmigrator to warn against showing too much knowledge, its another woman who trips up by showing too much knowledge and independence or otherwise not conforming to the standards of the day. This usually earns the derision of the female lead, who remarks that she should have ‘not tried to overestimate herself’, ‘act like the locals do’, or otherwise stay in her lane and don’t get too full of herself. Good advice overall, but still its refreshing to see that guys are as equally prone to being stupid and arrogant, and that just because they are men doesn’t mean they get to turn the ancient world upside down with modern knowledge and ethics
P. B.
Wait, he is a eunich, right? Is he so free that he can just leave the palace to stalk young girls from noble houses? And why is no one questioning a eunich coveting a young nobleman’s daughter?
P. B.
I love that this author decided to make the Back Alley Burlap Sack a staple of her novels (there was another cn that did the same bit and ran with it, but i can’t remember the name)
P. B.
Something i’ve noticed in the author’s other works (notibly Cann Fodder and Villain’s Happy Ending) and am starting to see here, is how you don’t ever feel that the male lead is looking down on the MC. Sure, he’s cold and aloof, and can kill you without hesitation, but once they start to interact the male lead takes our MC seriously and doesn’t talk down or belittle her. Even here when Gu Feichi visits Xiao Yanfei at night, he doesn’t act like being in a girl’s boudoir is beneath him, nor does he tease her about inviting strange men into her room at night. No, he calmly takes a seat when offered and has a civil conversation with her (and all without looming over her to emphasize the height/strength difference between them, or smirking/teasing her to show that he is a Big Man and XYF’s concerns are child’s play to him)
It’s still early, and I might be reading too much into it, but i loved CFaVHE, and have high hopes for this one
P. B.
Dang, madam Yin really over here carrying the entire Marquis of Wu’an on her back. Doubt her golddigging husband and her human-trafficker of a mother-in-law will appreciate it
P. B.
Dang, thanks anyway for the translations, had a blast reading so far
Hipployta
Ugh the fake is in on it all
Hipployta
Evil pure evil
Hipployta
Oh I like their style lol
Hipployta
Another evil rebirth smh
Chronos5884
Wonder if the fake is also reborn or if she was just told by her bio-mother.
Chronos5884
Oh. That's clever of her. Using the glass breaking to make a sound.
Chronos5884
Oohhh slightly tsun mostly dere princess?
I guess prince gu is indeed the prince she gets with. I'd wondered since we saw the thing about Wei Guo and the cold/illness and if they would chongxi. (Arrange a marriage to drive away misfortune)
Chronos5884
RIP, are they planning to send her to a eunuch. F that noise.
Chronos5884
Agreed it's nonsense. Fix things for the lady. And screw that granny.
Chronos5884
Madame Yin is a good woman. Everyone else should make way. Hopefully MC can find a way to help her and herself soon.
Chronos5884
Gross
Chronos5884
Beat That lecher! Beat him!
Chronos5884
I was about to dislike this madam, only to realize she's truly the captain of this ship. She ships so hard our mc and ml can't escape, And I'm OK with this, because the eunuch Gao is way scarier to me and at least Gu Feichi probably won't be a scumbag at all. I like to think he also won't touch MC without her full consent and permission.
Anyways biggest factor here at the moment is that I want to clap back at that concubine cui, grand madam Xiao, the trash husband, and eunuch gao.
Chronos5884
I know the boxes refresh every day, but isn't there a limit per day of items just because the med box can't hold an army's worth of medicines?
Chronos5884
Ah, I thought as much. Or rather, that it was a possibility.
Chronos5884
Thank you for translating this much!
