Has The Young Master Been Slapped In The Face Today?

When her twin brother was ordered to get married, but got kidnapped on the way, Meng Chang’an had to dress up as a man and get married on his behalf, in order to save the lives of the clan. The moment she stepped into the bridal chamber, the demonic sect’s young master, who had always behaved erratically, gathered all her sharpness and called out obediently to Her Royal Highness the Princess next to the bed, who was wearing a phoenix crown and beautiful robe: “Sister-in-law.” However, what she received was the meaningful look from the princess by the bed: “Don’t call me sister-in-law, call me wife.” Young Master Meng, who did not know the meaning of the kiss that landed on the corner of her mouth during the wedding night, finally gradually understood the thoughts of Her Royal Highness in the days that followed. Meng Chang’an: “Your Highness, I advise you to give up. This young master has never had a fondness for grinding mirrors², and in this lifetime, I will never like women. You should not waste your efforts on me!” Li Qiubai slowly raised her hand and gently touched the young master’s chest, with a teasing smile, she asked, “How could these efforts be wasted? Look at you, your heart is beating so fast. Even your legs are getting weak…” Young Master Meng lost her armor along the way but still wouldn’t give up: “Even if you get my body, you can’t have my heart. It’s impossible for me to be in love with a woman!” One year later: Her Royal Highness the Princess: “Sister, why don’t you call me sister-in-law?” Young Master Meng: “Wife…I know I was wrong…” Note: One of the characters in this story is a side character in “Record of the Poison Doctor Pursuing Her Wife”. This can be read as a stand alone. ______ ¹打脸 (dǎ liǎn) – Literally, it means “to slap one’s face.” Figuratively, means to be proven wrong, to eat one’s words. ²磨鏡 (mó jìng) euphemism referring to having lesbian s*xual relations, where both parties get a certain degree of s*xual satisfaction from rubbing or stroking each other’s bodies.

## My Thoughts on Has The Young Master Been Slapped In The Face Today? "Has The Young Master Been Slapped In The Face Today?" is a delightful yuri novel set in ancient times that I found myself thoroughly enjoying. It's a blend of comedy, historical elements, martial arts, and a sweet romance that really hit the spot. ### First Impressions The premise immediately grabbed my attention: a "tick headed" young master, Meng Chang'an, must masquerade as her twin brother to marry the seemingly scheming Princess Li Qiubai. But what appears to be a political marriage of convenience quickly transforms into a charming love story. I was particularly drawn to the initial setup, and eager to see how the relationship would unfold. ### What Works Well The romance is definitely a highlight. The dynamic between the innocent Meng Chang'an and the seductive, lovestruck Princess is hilarious and heartwarming. Li Qiubai's constant teasing and doting on Chang'an creates plenty of fluffy, smile-inducing moments. I especially appreciated how the author balanced the lighthearted romance with a more serious underlying plot involving court intrigue and war. It kept things interesting without overshadowing the central relationship. The character development, while perhaps not incredibly deep, was satisfying. Chang'an's endearing nature shines through, making it easy to understand why everyone around her cherishes her. ### Areas of Concern While I mostly enjoyed the story, I did notice some minor issues. The pacing seemed to falter a bit towards the later part of the novel. It felt like the author might have lost some direction, leading to a slightly rushed and less focused narrative. Also, while the side characters were interesting, the secondary couple could have benefited from more development. I wanted to see more of their inner thoughts and personalities. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Some readers might want to skip this section to avoid potential spoilers. One particularly poignant moment is when Li Qiubai chooses Meng Chang'an over the throne, highlighting the depth of her love. Another scene flashes back to their childhood meeting, adding another layer to their relationship. ### Final Verdict Overall, "Has The Young Master Been Slapped In The Face Today?" is a charming and enjoyable read. It's not without its flaws, but the sweet romance, comedic undertones, and interesting characters make it a worthwhile experience. If you're looking for a lighthearted yuri novel with a good balance of fluff and intrigue, I'd definitely recommend giving this one a try. I'd rate it a solid 4 out of 5 stars.
