In 16th-century Japan, human life was cheap, and war raged. The tides of the era were at a delicate balance between conservatism and innovation. For over a century, war raged, from the Oda to the Toyotomi, a new wave of change swept across the land. However, contact and conflict with the Nanban (Southern Barbarians) led the eventual victor, the Tokugawa Shogunate, to choose a policy of national isolation that lasted for centuries, until the arrival of the Black Ships forced open the country's doors, accelerating the inevitable decline… But this distant past—or rather, the future—had nothing to do with Yashiro for the time being. She was merely a blind girl who had accidentally transmigrated to ancient Japan, unable to see anything since birth. In this cruel era, what could a helpless blind girl do? "Let's set a small goal first…" Shoveling food into her mouth, Yashiro clenched her small fist: "One day, I'll buy a big house in Sakai, and every day I'll butcher steaks, drink red wine, and devour honey cakes!"…
Li Ling, the heir of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, is a man of exceptional talent and courage, a true gentleman.
His beloved wife, Shen, felt stifled living with him. Five years into their marriage, she had been incredibly devoted to him, yet he showed her absolutely no warmth.
If it were just because he was cold-hearted, she would accept it.
But when the Xiongnu invaded, the Ninth Princess was forced to marry a Xiongnu chieftain. Li Ling, in a fit of rage, petitioned the emperor to lead the expedition for the sake of his cousin, the princess.
She finally understood why he treated her coldly.
She was so angry that she didn't want to continue the relationship with him.
The divorce papers have been drafted, and we are just waiting for Li Ling to return and sign them.
To her surprise, when she woke up, she found herself back on her wedding night with Li Ling...
---
Li Ling married a docile young wife who doted on him. In the first month of their marriage, she pampered him to the point of being completely at ease.
In the past few days, Li Ling noticed that his new bride was acting strangely.
She no longer helped him dress in the morning; she no longer served him food or soup at mealtimes; and at night, she would turn away as soon as he approached her.
The dignified and aloof Li Ling could no longer hold back.
He leaned closer: "Madam, are you feeling unwell?"
She just rolled her eyes at him.
Li Ling scratched his head: "Is Madam not quite used to life here since you first arrived?"
She lowered her head and remained silent.
Li Ling was so eager to know her that he had to keep a close eye on her every move in order to try and understand his wife's heart.
One day, while watching a polo match, he saw her cover her face and smile at a man on the field; another day, he saw her resting her chin on her hand, lost in thought as she read a talented scholar's poem; and once at a palace banquet, he even saw the Crown Prince smile slightly at her...
Li Ling's mind became more and more chaotic each day.
Manman was adopted by the childless Jingnan Marquis's Mansion. After the Marquis's mistress had her own child, she disliked Manman and abandoned her to their mortal enemy, the Xuanning Marquis's Mansion.
Rumor has it that Marquis Xuanning is crippled in both legs and has a hidden illness, and that his wife is mentally ill. The two have been married for many years without children.
A cripple paired with a madman, plus a discarded piece that the opponent doesn't want, is a disastrous start.
After the news spread among the nobles in the capital, everyone was waiting to see the Marquis of Xuanning's family make a fool of themselves.
But as they waited, Lady Xuanning recovered from her madness, and the Marquis of Xuanning was able to stand up again.
The couple not only had two children in three years, but the whole family also enjoyed gossiping and taking revenge on the scumbags, and their lives got better and better.
Marquis Xuanning was so happy that he personally went to the Marquis Jingnan’s residence to express his gratitude: So, my mortal enemy, you are a good person after all!
Marquis Jingnan was filled with deep regret.
Since Manman left, the Jingnan Marquis's family has suffered from a decline in offspring and a desolate state. The Jingnan Marquis and his wife tearfully begged Manman to return.
Manman doesn't want that at all. Actually, she is the biological daughter of Marquis Xuanning and his wife!
She was originally a fearsome demon of the night, feared by all in modern times, but by chance, she obtained an ancient ring. Betrayed by her best friend, she unexpectedly found herself transported to another magical world. In this new world, she found herself with a devilishly handsome prince to play with. From then on, she killed, he handed her the knife; she set fires, he fanned the flames. Thus began their extraordinary life together.
He was kidnapped by a group of bandits and taken to a mountain stronghold to be a son-in-law as soon as he transmigrated.
It doesn't matter if you don't have a cheat code; with your modern knowledge and experience, you can still make a name for yourself.
Watch how I dominate this world and become a local tyrant.
Don't call me a bandit leader, I'm the big boss of the mountain stronghold!

Lightning protection:
1. The female lead has no bottom line, but she's not entirely evil.
2. There is no romantic pairing in the main story (this may not be the case in the side stories, but it's highly likely). Feel free to ship any pairings you like, even between the elders themselves, just please don't argue.
3. The early game is not fast-paced; it's a growth-oriented game where you get stronger and more ruthless as you progress.
4. The female lead is a naturally gifted character who levels up effortlessly.
5. The female lead will definitely be the strongest in the end, not second best.
In 1881, at the height of the Victorian era, under the gaslight of London, crime and opportunity festered together in the thick fog. Arthur Collins, an impoverished former student expelled from Oxford University, had only his sickly sister and a mind full of literary memories from the 21st century as his only assets. To survive, he had no choice but to become a "fire thief"—stealing the sparks of thought from the next century to illuminate the obscure skies of this once-mighty empire. He introduced Edgar Allan Poe's dark poems to England as a "discoverer"; he became a "pioneer," making Sherlock Holmes's deerstalker hat and pipe symbols of reason; he founded "Arkham House," recruiting hidden talents like Lord Dunsani and Mr. James, building his own literary empire. He donned the mask of a "prophet," using...
