Spring Scents Escape the Eastern Palace

An innocent, naive farm girl × a cold-faced, arrogant crown prince

Cozy everyday life / both pure and devoted / sweet romance / one-on-one / happy ending

Jun Linyan fell off a cliff and met a farm girl who saved his life.

But he also suffered more in one go than he had in his entire life.

Sleeping in a pigsty, eating pig slop…

Unable to take it anymore, Jun Linyan secretly slaughtered one of her chickens to get some decent food.

The farm girl glared at him. “You penniless freeloader! Pay me back for my chicken!”

Jun Linyan flushed with indignation. “I’m the crown prince of the Eastern Palace!”

The farm girl looked at him with clear eyes. What was a crown prince of the Eastern Palace? Some new kind of currency from beyond the mountains?

Jun Linyan fell silent, drinking chicken soup while enduring her scolding.

She even took the token he carried as collateral.

In just ten days, he felt as if this farm girl had worn down all his sharp edges…

After he returned to the palace, the empress tried to control him and ordered him to choose a crown princess.

He had a sudden inspiration, drew a portrait, and brought her into the palace.

The farm girl thought the palace was quite nice. She could earn four taels of silver a month, which met her income expectations.

So she worked diligently.

Then one day, she was promoted to crown princess, with a salary of fifty taels a month!

No one ever complains about having too much money.

Even as crown princess, she still planned to earn some extra on the side.

For example, she charged two taels to help the crown prince put on an act. Eunuch He paid her two taels to persuade her to visit the crown prince.

The third prince asked her to come decorate his garden, and offered a whopping two hundred taels!

She went without a second thought.

That night, Jun Linyan dragged her back, grinding his teeth. “I’ll pay you ten thousand gold. Stay away from that man!”
