You Said You Couldn't Have Heirs, Prince, So Why Are You So Strong?

[Palace intrigue + household battles] [Substitute bride] [Historical romance] Bai Wei was the most overlooked concubine-born daughter of the Minister's residence. But when her legitimate elder sister, Bai Shao, decided she would rather marry into wealth, Bai Wei was shoved into the bridal sedan and married off to Pei Jue Ming, a prince of a different surname rumored to be cruel and impotent. Everyone in the capital was waiting to laugh at Bai Wei. Pei Jue Ming had spent years on the battlefield and was said to radiate a murderous aura. His residence also housed a “wild child” of unknown origins. Bai Shao smirked. “Little sister, the prince may be a rough sort, but at least he's a member of the imperial family. Your good fortune is still to come.” Bai Wei sneered. “If it's such good fortune, why don't you take it?” But after entering the prince's residence, Bai Wei discovered that the rumors were all nonsense. Her stepson was the orphaned son of the former crown prince, well-behaved and considerate, and fiercely protective of those he loved. Her supposedly cruel husband was a peerlessly handsome man, cold on the outside but warm at heart. He not only handed over his military seal and salary card, but even washed his hands and made her a meal. With her extraordinary medical skills, Bai Wei cured her husband's hidden ailment and defeated all the monsters and demons lurking in the prince's residence. Their days together grew sweeter than honey. Later, Pei Jue Ming wrapped an arm around Bai Wei's waist and declared boldly atop the palace walls, “What does the empire matter to me? I want only Bai Wei.” By then, Bai Shao had been cast aside and become a forsaken wife. She knelt outside the palace gates, staring wistfully at the man she had once treated as worthless as dirt, now doting on Bai Wei until every woman in the world envied her.
