[Main tropes] Socially anxious heroine × System-led development × Cold-faced Fourth Master × Pregnancy before marriage × Laid-back household intrigue
An Qian is a curator in the rare books department of the municipal library. Severely socially anxious and obsessed with books, she lives by one rule: “If I can avoid seeing people, I will.”
Then one day, she unexpectedly becomes an overnight sensation. A sea of people crowds into the library to check in, and An Qian's vision goes black. When she opens her eyes again, she is a newborn baby girl lying in a sheepskin cradle on the grasslands.
Being transmigrated into a newborn would be bad enough, but her father is none other than Burni, the Chahar prince who was wiped out along with his clan after a rebellion in the fourteenth year of the Kangxi reign!
A disastrous start from the very beginning. An Qian's heart sinks: of all people, why did she have to become the child of a rebel? She silently takes stock of her situation: stubby arms and legs at two and a half, barely able to speak, unable to outrun a grassland wolf, and powerless to stop the imperial army. Her only hope is the “Life Improvement System” that suddenly chimes and binds itself to her mind.
Starting with improving baby carriers, she uses modern knowledge to develop the grasslands step by step. The Chahar tribe grows stronger under her influence, and her father's attitude toward the imperial court shifts from wavering to loyal.
Everything is under control until she meets that young man at Mulan Hunting Grounds. A misunderstanding follows, and not a single apology comes before she leaves. Their second meeting is even more chaotic. She ends up in trouble, flees back to Mongolia overnight, and discovers she is pregnant. Four years later, an imperial marriage edict arrives out of nowhere, and she marries into Prince Yong's household.
Every woman in the household is waiting to see her make a fool of herself, but she quietly reads books and completes System tasks. Before long, all of the capital knows that the little princess of Chahar is no pushover!
