An Ancient-Era Woman Awakens: Loving Yourself Is the Way to Go

[Mind-reading chaos and gossip, seizing the male lead’s throne, women in ancient times awakening, the heroine changing the world’s injustice toward women, female-led romance with no reverse harem.] Shen Xingxi was born into a family that favored boys over girls. She fought with all her might to escape her family, glimpsed the beauty of modern society, but died at the hands of an abusive partner and transmigrated to ancient times, where the preference for sons was even more severe. Just as she was losing hope, a merit System appeared and told her she could earn money by doing good deeds. Of course she would help other girls suffering just like her! Because of the System, Prince Yun can read Shen Xingxi’s mind, and her thoughts appear in gold lettering above his head. This makes everyone think that Shen Xingxi’s thoughts are Prince Yun’s. Shen Xingxi: “The more I look at this person, the more I like him.” The Crown Prince sucked in a sharp breath when he saw the words above Prince Yun’s head. Mr. Yun likes him! Prince Yun watches as Shen Xingxi gradually puts her plans into action: Opening up business to women, allowing women to sit the civil service examinations, establishing schools for girls… He watches the world slowly escape poverty as women rise, and stops resisting the comments above his head. He willingly stands among the crowd and relays Shen Xingxi’s words through the on-screen comments: Girls! Have you ever heard people say things like this? “Women are naturally weaker than men! Why should girls study so much?!” “Women should be quiet and refined. It’s improper for them to run around all day.” And yet, the noble families’ daughters are all eloquent, while the invincible army of the Shen family is made up of women who ride boldly into battle! We don’t have to become the kind of women the world expects us to be! We should define our gender, not let our gender define us! Girls! The path is laid out before you: civil service exams, business, military service… Your future is yours to decide.
