Ye Shuangjiang wakes up to find she has transmigrated into the body of the true daughter, forced to marry the villainous, crippled crown prince in her place.
The original owner, resentful and bitter, took all her anger out on the crippled crown prince, leaving him permanently disabled and making him the perfect tragic, beautiful villain.
The day the crown prince is exonerated will be the day “she” is hacked to pieces and thrown to the dogs, ending her story for good.
Upon learning how she is destined to end, Ye Shuangjiang shudders. She looks up and sees the great villain, whom the original owner has left barely alive, lying on the ground. Her panic only grows.
Is it still in time for her to save herself?

After weighing her options, Ye Shuangjiang decides she has to save him.
Once the villain makes a comeback, she’ll ask him for a letter of divorce, and they can go their separate ways, each free to live as they please.
Ye Shuangjiang throws herself into playing the role of a fiercely devoted wife.
She searches everywhere for renowned doctors to treat his injuries, drives off the thugs who come looking for trouble, and praises his good looks and talent every day...
At last, in the third year of their exile, the crown prince is exonerated, and the emperor summons him to the capital.
Ye Shuangjiang quickly presents her divorce papers.
But the great villain refuses to divorce her and insists on taking her to the capital.

Ye Shuangjiang thinks she’ll meet her end alongside the great villain, becoming a foil to the main characters.
To her surprise, everyone who ever wronged “her” is dead, and neither she nor the great villain has been written out.
Not only are they still alive, the great villain has ascended the throne.
And she has become the sole mistress of the imperial harem.
But why is the great villain looking at her more and more strangely?
