[Farming + food + political intrigue + wish fulfillment + heroine with a hidden identity + third-party transmigration perspective] After working late, Jiang Zhenzhen, a corporate wage slave, was hit by a car on her way home and transmigrated into an alternate ancient world. There, she was a fifteen-year-old child bride, bought from human traffickers by the Yun family to bring good luck to their frail fourteen-year-old youngest son. Just days after she arrived, her parents-in-law died. Her older brother and sister-in-law bullied her, and her young husband was sickly... So Jiang Zhenzhen took her husband and split from the family. She sold lemonade, milk tea, ready-to-eat dried lemon slices, all kinds of dried fruits and vegetables, French fries, tornado potatoes, pork jerky, and even made wine, hair clips, and hair ties... Before long, she had turned her little stall into a chain that spanned the entire Great Yong Dynasty. Meanwhile, her young husband grew from a country bumpkin into a powerful chancellor.
The reborn Twelfth Prince was sure he was the protagonist. This time, he would save the country from disaster and make sure its people never again died beneath the hooves of foreign invaders.
But now the chancellor, who had been a paranoid, world-weary madman in his previous life, had become the top scholar two years earlier than before. He was also warm, brave, and resourceful, and so impressed by the prince's achievements that he wanted to support him as emperor. What in the world had happened?!
The Twelfth Prince is just a background character, there to highlight how the male lead changed after meeting the heroine.
I don't know much about literature or history, so please don't yell at me if I use a term incorrectly. I'll fix it!!!
