Historical romance + transmigration + scheming System + war + wild imagination + time and space
Song Wenyi was an orphan who transmigrated into the body of a concubine-born daughter in the household of a fourth-rank official in Fengdu. After three years of hard work, she turned the Song household, which had once been like Empresses in the Palace, into a warm and harmonious home. She even chose a husband from a family of equal standing.
Just as she thought she could live happily ever after, the two people she had accidentally rescued when she first transmigrated and fell into the water turned out to be, respectively, a prince and the reigning emperor.
Prince Ning, Xiao Quan, was the first to track her down. With a little scheming, he ruined her engagement.
As they spent time together, Song Wenyi discovered that Xiao Quan was devoted and kind-natured. Spending the rest of her life lying flat in his prince’s residence didn’t seem like a bad choice.
On the day she and Xiao Quan were to marry, the emperor sent him to guard the northwestern frontier. When he returned, Emperor Xiao Heng surrounded him in the courtyard and shot him dead.
While fleeing, Song Wenyi fell from a cliff and was rescued by Wen Yizhi, a doctor from Anping Village who lived far downstream.
As the two spent time together, affection quietly blossomed between them. The villagers’ warmth and the village’s slow-paced life once again made her want to settle down in a quiet corner of the world.
But it was as if Heaven itself were working against her. On the very day she and Lin Yizhi held their wedding, bandits raided the village, and Lin Yizhi died protecting her.
Only then did she realize this was one of the System’s schemes: a plot to force her toward the supreme throne?
