[Money-loving comedian heroine VS seemingly aloof, secretly lovesick man who wins himself over] [Second male lead takes the crown and pursues his wife through hell] [Cute pets] [Light comedy]
1. Yi Ye spent sixteen years disguised as a man to protect the Crown Prince. Everyone at court knew how utterly loyal she was to him. Just as she was about to complete her mission, the System told her: “You chose the wrong target.”
Yi Ye: “...I took 999 blows for nothing!!!”
2. Yi Ye stopped hanging around the Crown Prince and started hanging around the Imperial Preceptor instead.
The Crown Prince: Yi Ye is doing this for me. She wants the Imperial Preceptor to take sides and join the Crown Prince’s faction.
Yi Ye says she doesn’t like him.
The Crown Prince: A Ye must be keeping her distance to avoid suspicion. She knows Mother won’t let him be fond of men.
Yi Ye says she wants to protect the Imperial Preceptor.
The Crown Prince: She belonged to me for sixteen years, so she’ll belong to me from now on, too.
3. Yi Ye’s new target turns out to be her sworn enemy, the Imperial Preceptor. They argue fiercely at court and are at each other’s throats outside it. But when Yi Ye sticks to him like glue and uses a “puppy-dog approach” to get close in order to complete her mission, she discovers that the Imperial Preceptor had a childhood first love?
And that first love was her?!!!
