Description
(Inner palace scheming + household power struggles + medical skills + face-slapping plot + strong female lead) Twin lotuses blooming on the same stalk, one yin, one yang, never to meet. Chaochao Tang had grown up in a Daoist temple on Misty Mountain since childhood. At sixteen, she received a letter from home—her twin sister, whom she’d never met, had died. Chaochao Tang descended the mountain without a second thought. Not only did she open the coffin to examine the body, she stirred up the entire capital. “My father is Assistant Minister Xu Huairen. You little priestess dare hit me?” Chaochao Tang grinned wide. “I’m hitting your d**n dad!” “Are you crazy? I’m the Prime Minister’s daughter, and you dare torture me?” Chaochao Tang grinned again. “Not only will I hit you, I’ll f***ing kill you too!” Emperor Kangjian: “Princess Chao’an, you must stop hanging heads on the gates of the princes’ residences!” Chaochao Tang grinned. “Yes, Your Majesty!” And next time, she’d still do it. Emperor Kangjian: “Princess Chao’an, it’s fine to investigate cases, but stop abducting people! Chancellor Xie has gone mad searching for his daughter!” Chaochao Tang grinned. “Okay, next time I’ll interrogate them at their doorstep!” A certain determined but disabled prince: “Whoever you want to kill next time, Chaochao, I’ll hand you the knife.” Chaochao Tang curled her lips. “Sounds good!” All those femme fatales and twisted schemes—her fists get the final say!

My Thoughts on Fierce Little Taoist Shreds the Capital, Crippled Prince Hands Her a Blade
"Fierce Little Taoist Shreds the Capital, Crippled Prince Hands Her a Blade" is quite the title, isn't it? It certainly grabbed my attention, promising a whirlwind of action and perhaps a touch of romance. After diving in, I found a story that starts with familiar tropes but evolves into something much grander.
First Impressions
Initially, I was prepared for a classic revenge story set in ancient China. We have our fierce female lead (the "grenade" as some might say), out to avenge her twin sister's death. The early chapters dive into the petty squabbles of noble families, the jealousies and viciousness that seem to be a staple in these kinds of dramas. I'll admit, I was a little wary, as those elements can sometimes feel a bit tiresome.
What Works Well
The protagonist is definitely a highlight. Her straightforward approach to problems, often involving a healthy dose of violence, is refreshing. She's not afraid to ruffle feathers, and that makes her a compelling character to follow. The plot, while initially seeming simple, quickly becomes more complex as more characters and conspiracies are introduced. It keeps you guessing, which is always a plus in my book. Later on, the story takes a pretty unexpected turn, shifting from palace intrigue to large-scale wars and even delving into mystic practices like cultivation. This broadening of scope is a bold move and, from what I've gathered, pays off.
Areas of Concern
I did find some of the initial "backyard scheming" a bit tedious and perhaps unnecessary, especially considering the direction the story eventually takes. It felt like those early plot threads were somewhat forgotten as the narrative progressed.
