Favoring Concubines and Neglecting the Wife? The General’s Wife Calls it Quits and Divorces!

Yuan Xueyue, the overlooked illegitimate daughter of a Prefect, was bartered into marriage with Guo Liangxian, a rising soldier she barely knew. Her father, eager to gain favor, used her as a stepping stone, introducing the ambitious young man to Prince Xian. Five years later, Guo Liangxian returned a decorated General, his name echoing with newfound glory – and with a mistress on his arm. Reborn into that fateful moment, Yuan Xueyue refuses to repeat her past. She remembers all too well the years of silent suffering, the constant neglect, and the final, agonizing year spent bedridden, ignored by her husband and scorned by his family. She remembers dying a broken woman, a victim of their ambition and indifference. She will no longer be the dutiful wife, silently enduring humiliation and raising a disloyal nephew while her husband flaunts his affections for another. Let the General have his victory, his honor, and his concubine! She will arrange a lavish ceremony, a final act of defiance before severing ties with the treacherous Guo family. This time, she will not interfere with her adopted nephew’s wild spirit, nor will she waste her energy battling the favored concubine. Let them have their chaos. She, the House Master, is quitting! She’ll embrace a life free from their drama, quietly filing for divorce and leaving the General’s Residence to crumble under its own weight. But fate, it seems, has other plans. As Yuan Xueyue orchestrates her escape, the General, finally realizing the value of what he’s lost, embarks on a desperate pursuit, only to find the door to her heart firmly closed. And Prince Xian, observing the unfolding drama with keen interest, whispers, “Luckily, you let go, or this Prince would never have found such a wonderful wife.” This time, Yuan Xueyue will write her own destiny, far from the gilded cage of the General’s Residence and into the arms of a man who truly sees her worth.
