While developing a tourism project in an ancient town, Yu Zhuling, a rich heiress from the 21st century, accidentally transmigrates into the daughter of the Minister of Revenue of the State of Yan. The good news: as the legitimate daughter, she has her mother's protection and the affection of four older brothers. The bad news: she has been “mute” since childhood and shows signs of autism, making her the good-for-nothing of the noblewomen's circle.
Proud Yu Zhuling would never put up with people mocking her. Armed with a pocket dimension and exceptional business instincts, she is determined to defy fate and change her life. But an imperial edict sends her crashing to rock bottom. She wakes up in a bridal sedan, married into the poorest princely household in history. She becomes a farmer in the circle of princess consorts and a laughingstock to her sisters-in-law.
Go on, laugh all you want! So what if the house is bare? So what if I've suddenly become a mother?
She works hard, cultivates farmland, makes cosmetics, and does her best to support the household, treating it as targeted poverty relief.
After weathering countless trials, she transforms into a wealthy merchant of the capital, a sales prodigy, and one of the most outstanding princess consorts. Everyone envies her, and suitors practically trample the gates of the prince's residence. Just as Yu Zhuling is about to seize the opportunity to ask for a divorce, the once-destitute prince suddenly reveals that he's rich enough to rival a nation.
Qin Mosi sheds his former abstinent image, turns into a hungry wolf, and pounces on her.
“The night is long, and I can't sleep alone. Would my beloved consort be willing to bear me children?”
“No! So what if you're rich? You still have to bow to the powerful!”
Qin Mosi understands her meaning and wins the throne just a few months later.
“My beloved consort, I offer you the empire as your betrothal gift and the four seas as your wedding present. Will you be my empress?”
“Since your family has a throne to inherit, I suppose I'll reluctantly have you a little monkey!” Yu Zhuling sees how sincere he is and gives in without hesitation.
