Lin Qingyi, a girl who is afraid of modern society, once traveled through time and became the princess of the ancient subjugated country - cannon fodder who was killed on the way to her husband. The good news is that she is bound to a love system. As long as she conquers the current tyrant and completes the system tasks, she can survive. The bad news is that the tyrant was known to be ruthless and murderous.
The first task issued by the system is to make the tyrant like her. Lin Qingyi looked at the moody man in front of her and trembled. In order to survive, she had no choice but to bite the bullet.
The tyrant Xiao Yan has experienced palace struggles since he was a child. He is sinister and suspicious and does not trust anyone. In his opinion, the marriage of the subjugated princess was just a political ploy and he never cared about it. But this little princess, who was as timid as a mouse but occasionally made shocking remarks, aroused his interest.
Lin Qingyi completed the system tasks with trepidation: delivering hand-made pastries to the tyrant (although the appearance was very poor), staying up late to embroider purses for him (although the stitching was rough), and even singing modern pop songs to him (although running off-key to the sky).
Although Xiao Yan said he disliked her, in his heart he was gradually attracted to this clumsy little princess. He discovered that Lin Qingyi looked weak, but was actually tough on the inside, with intelligence and courage that was inconsistent with her appearance. She would secretly put on a coat for him when he was reviewing memorials late into the night; she would bravely stand up to defend her dignity when the palace maids bullied her; she would also use her lame singing to make him happy when he was upset.
Lin Qingyi originally just wanted to complete the task and save her life, but she unknowingly fell in love with Xiao Yan. She discovered that this seemingly cold and ruthless man was also gentle and kind.
