After an accident, Xu Ruoyan transmigrates to the Daqing Dynasty, only to find herself in the worst possible situation from the start: sold to a blind man in the mountains to be his wife.
Unwilling to waste her chance at a second life, Xu Ruoyan secretly gathers herbs in the mountains every day to save up travel money, waiting for a chance to escape her blind husband.
But one day, her unusual identity is discovered by her blind husband, who gives her two choices: help him seize the throne, or die.
Xu Ruoyan: Do you see any difference between those two choices?
With no other option, Xu Ruoyan becomes an accomplice to Pei Jue. Together, they make their way from a remote village into the capital, open an apothecary, earn money, build an army, and win people's hearts.
Gradually, Xu Ruoyan makes her apothecary thrive, opening a chain of pharmacies in the capital and becoming so busy she can barely keep up.
Pei Jue: "My wife, I'd like to go to the lantern festival with you tomorrow."
Xu Ruoyan: "The people come first. I serve the people. You'll have to wait."
Pei Jue: "I'm one of the people, too."
Xu Ruoyan: "You're not sick."
Pei Jue: "I'm sick with longing for you."
Pei An, standing nearby and afraid to speak: "...What did you do to my brother?"
When he launches his rebellion, Pei Jue wields a long sword like a grim reaper from the depths of hell, cutting down anyone who stands in his way, gods or Buddhas alike. He fights his way to the emperor and kills him with a single stroke.
Just as the ministers are about to kneel and pay their respects, they hear Pei Jue say from before the throne, "My wife, take a seat."
The shrewd ministers all stare in shock: You weren't like this just a moment ago!

Talented young doctor, skilled in both civil and martial arts x double-standard husband and third prince
P.S. The male lead won't be blind for the entire story. He'll be cured later.
Theme: I decide my own fate
I have made at least several hundred taels of silver in a few months. Is this reasonable?
I have something to do at home. I haven't been here for a long time. Congratulations on the completion 💪 💪 💪
Please update soon. I will go back to school in the afternoon and I won't be able to see you anymore.
Great, Pei Jue, madam, I'm so cold hahahahaha 😳
