Qiu Qi, a sloppy sheep-herding girl in the Beiyuan wilderness, spends her days wiping her nose and counting sheep, but is threatened by the system in her mind that she will die if she doesn't become a princess. The system guided her to find hemostatic medicine to rescue her second brother, and also forced her to take a bath and become literate. After taking a bath, Ye Buqi, a traveling scholar, appeared unexpectedly and promised to teach her how to read, but Qiu Qi was shocked to spit out tea when he read Chinese characters incorrectly. Ye Buqi couldn't bear the hard work of teaching and ran away, but after Qiu Qi completed the literacy task, the system actually sent him back after running away, and a misplaced and funny story of growing up a princess began.
