[Mind-reading + disabled prince + redemption + substitute marriage + devoted 1v1 romance + sweet love]
Caught up in the transmigration craze, she couldn't escape the classic substitute-bride plot.
The male lead's stunning looks made it worth it, and she could just about tolerate his paralyzed legs, too. But who could have told her he could eavesdrop on people's thoughts?!
Ji Qinglang figured that if she secured the position of princess consort, her disabled husband wouldn't be able to fight for power or the throne, and she could live peacefully for the rest of her life.
But there was no quiet place in the palace or the prince's residence. It was all schemes, deceit, and power struggles.
Less than half a month after marrying into the prince's residence, Ji Qinglang was exhausted.
Once she agreed to cure the disabled prince's legs, she could leave with a divorce letter. So Ji Qinglang threw herself into the task! She searched old medical texts to treat his legs and cure his poisoning, while secretly selling medicinal herbs for money.
Little by little, with Ji Qinglang's help, the disabled prince's power grew. But once his legs had recovered, he changed his mind...
Ji Qinglang: "You promised to give me a divorce letter, but now you've gone back on your word. A grown man should keep his promises, instead of bullying a weak woman like me."
He Feng: "Others may not know, but I do. Miss Ji is quite the master of playing the fool while hiding her claws. If I offer you something substantial so you won't lose out, would you consider staying?"
Ji Qinglang eyed him suspiciously. "What?"
He Feng: "I'll offer you the empire as your bride price, and give you myself. How does that sound?"
