Zhou Wuyan transmigrates into the body of a general’s legitimate daughter, unloved by her father and left motherless. Her cruel stepmother torments her day after day, and she has no say in her own marriage.
But after a while, she realizes that the prince, rumored to be moody and sickly, might not be so bad after all.
In fact... she might even be falling for him.
That won’t do. This humble devotee seeks only wealth and status, not a shred of true love!
Just as she tries to make her escape, the lovesick Prince Liu Yun grabs her and asks, “Can’t you stay?”
Zhou Wuyan: “I could, if you made me empress.”
She never expected that some fool would actually act on her offhand remark.
With everything settled, the man reaches out from his dragon throne:
“Now, can you be my empress?”
