The Whole Household Can Read My Mind, and Now the Plot Is Completely Ruined

Jiang Yuan transmigrates into the ancient world as the eldest legitimate daughter of the Minister of Rites, abandoned in the countryside for fifteen years. Now that she's been brought back to the capital, she decides to play the obedient daughter and keep her head down until she marries. What she doesn't know is that her entire family has suddenly gained the ability to hear her thoughts.

At the spring banquet, she respectfully greets her father while grumbling inwardly: [What's with this doting-father act? If he weren't afraid the censors would accuse him of abandoning his legitimate daughter, he never would have brought me back.] The teacup in Minister Jiang's hand crashes to the floor.

During etiquette lessons, she looks at her second younger sister, decked out in pearls and jewels: [The walking jewelry shop is here again.] Jiang Wei flushes with anger, only to hear the next thought: [Though I have to admit, she has great taste in color combinations.] She suddenly isn't sure whether she should wear the gold hairpin in her hand.

And things get even worse: the Seventh Prince, Zhou Jingheng, who is destined to die young in the history books, can hear her thoughts too! When she looks at him and sighs inwardly, [Such a handsome prince, and in six months he'll work himself to death handling disaster relief], Zhou Jingheng's eyes instantly turn deep and dangerous...

From then on, everything changes.

Minister Jiang starts adjusting state affairs according to her “predictions,” preventing one popular uprising after another. Madam Jiang improves the concubine-born daughters' treatment based on her “thoughts.” Even her arrogant second younger sister starts following her around every day for fashion advice. And the Seventh Prince, who should have died young, is not only alive and well, but keeps whispering in her ear: “Whatever you're thinking right now, my dear, I can hear it all.”

On the night the Crown Prince launches his coup, Jiang Yuan's inner complaint, [The guards at Donghua Gate are the weakest], changes the course of history. At the new emperor's enthronement ceremony, Zhou Jingheng places the imperial phoenix seal in her hands in front of all the officials: “Half of my empire was won by you, my beloved, with your thoughts.”
