Su Jin, a top-tier psychological counselor, opened her eyes to find herself an unlucky bride sent to bring good fortune to a disabled crown prince.
On their wedding night, Crown Prince Xiao Yu clutched a dagger and begged for death.
All the people in the capital were betting on how many days this bride would survive.
But Su Jin calmly took out an assessment form and said, "Your Highness, your PTSD symptoms are textbook. Taking your own life is an avoidant response to trauma. I suggest we start by building a therapeutic relationship."
Later, she healed the crown prince's heart with cognitive behavioral therapy while using business psychology to upend the capital's schemes.
When the crown prince stood once more in the Golden Hall, the ministers cried, "Long live the emperor!"
But he stepped down from the throne and held her hand tight. "Half my realm was won with the help of my 'medicine.'"
On the title page of Su Jin's notebook, she had written just one line:
The best way to heal a man is to become his one and only attending physician, and his irreplaceable... strongest support.
