Synopsis

As the legitimate daughter of a marquis’s household, she won’t let anyone take advantage of her. She eats, drinks, and has fun, traveling over hills and rivers. Who cares about romance? She only loves herself. Take Su Qingwan, for instance. She’s smart and in love with the crown prince, but he tells her to be a good wife and help him rise to power, while he sends her two concubines in return. She saved a madman. Guess you really shouldn’t save men so casually. Xiao Heng, the brocade-clad guard commander, tsk, tsk... She marries Zhao Shuo, but first lays down the law: hand over your private treasury. Make the same mistake every man makes, and I’ll confiscate it all and divorce you. Then she takes Zhao Shuo’s treasury and marries someone else. Han Yi used me as a stepping-stone. I get it. But then he caught feelings, and when Zhang Jiang says he’s no longer up to it, he shouts that a man must never admit he can’t perform. Third Prince Xiao Ran looks like he couldn’t care less about competing, but he becomes emperor. “I have to secure my throne first.” Second Prince Xiao Yan used to bully me, so I watch him drink poison. Su Qingwan gets slapped by Consort Yu. Furious, she sneaks into the palace that night using her lightness skills, only for the emperor to have his way with her. That’ll teach her not to be so stubborn. Weren’t they supposed to be mutually faithful? Su Qingwan, the supporting female character, takes a fall too and turns over a new leaf. The ending is way too happy.
