Synopsis

[Innocent, inexperienced crown prince × radiant, resilient older woman, both pure]

The Xi family had twin daughters. One was kidnapped when they were three and wasn’t found until she was fourteen.

Xiang Wu was the one who had been kidnapped.

When she was brought back to the family estate, her twin sister, Xi Qingtong, was already renowned throughout the capital. She, meanwhile, was just a country girl who had needed three years of etiquette lessons to pass for a young lady.

When the sisters were seventeen, their marriages were arranged. The sister raised in the capital was betrothed to the crown prince as a secondary consort, while the one raised in the countryside was to become the principal wife of a poor scholar, their distant cousin.

Who could have guessed that shortly after the sisters married, the crown prince would be stripped of his title and demoted to a commoner, sent to live in a crumbling palace, and left with one leg crippled, while their cousin became a palace graduate and seemed destined for a brilliant future?

The favored younger sister and their biased mother pressured the two women to switch places. “You grew up in the countryside. You’re used to a hard life, aren’t you?”

Even the cousin was tempted. He guiltily confessed his feelings to Xi Qingwu. “It was Qingtong I loved all along...”

In the end, Xi Qingwu agreed. It was repayment for the Xi family raising her, and she had no desire to spend her life with a cousin whose heart belonged to someone else.

She moved with the deposed crown prince to the crumbling palace and began a quiet country life...

But later, when the deposed crown prince reclaimed power, her twin sister and family demanded that the two women secretly switch back.

A cold smile touched Xi Qingwu’s lips. Did they think they could switch her in and out whenever they pleased? Did they really take her for a pushover?

After Crown Prince Xiao Ji was demoted to a commoner, his supporters deserted him. Even his betrothed crown princess broke off their engagement, and only his secondary consort was still willing to stay by his side.

Even after realizing she wasn’t the same secondary consort as before, he pretended not to know.

But when he heard that the Xi family was plotting to switch the two women back, Xiao Ji could no longer sit still.

It's quite good, and it's a romance between an older woman and a younger man. The 18-year-old boy and girl have such a youthful and shy love story. It's about a pure-hearted, puppy-like prince and a beautiful, refined woman from the countryside (the older sister of the prince's concubine). The plot involves a husband-swapping, and both are virgins.

I really love Qingwu's character design. Most female protagonist stories start with a dazzling, vibrant, and well-developed image, like a flower that blooms brightly. But Qingwu is more like a tree; she's steady, resilient, and constantly growing. Neither she nor the Crown Prince were born with abundant branches and leaves; they gradually grew stronger, ultimately protecting the world.

Overall, it's very good, and the plot development is excellent. However, the terms "twin sisters" and "twin younger sisters" are used too often. In fact, after a few appearances, their relationship is already clear, so it doesn't need to be repeatedly mentioned in every character and scene.

I randomly picked this book and was pleasantly surprised. Although it involves court intrigue and many awful family members, my overall feeling was one of gentle warmth and tranquility. I don't really understand those who criticize the female lead; human nature is complex.

I've read several of Yintai Jinque's books and I love them all. Highly recommended! 😘😘😘 I really like the female protagonists she portrays; they're so delicate. She writes so well.

This is a good book; it's one of the few books that gives you the patience to read it from beginning to end. The female protagonist, Qingwu, is resilient and kind, like a sycamore tree providing shelter for others. The male protagonist, Xiao Ji, is a kind and simple-minded crown prince.

As a history student, I applaud the author's use of classical Chinese in that passage! The male and female leads are very well-developed and excellent; their relationship develops naturally, and they support each other as they grow. I'm looking forward to their career development!

The innocent and shy "little" prince and the free-spirited and generous Qingqing get along so sweetly! 🥰 Only forty-odd chapters have been updated so far, it's simply not enough! 😳 Author, please don't overwork yourself or take a break! Ten chapters a day would be perfect! 😏 Looking forward to the later plot where the "little" prince discovers Qingqing's true identity! 🥰

This is a great article, really good. Don't let a few pages make you think it's not good; you have to keep reading! The characters are vividly portrayed, including the female lead's twin sisters. Their different upbringing shaped their distinct personalities and perspectives.
