Shen Qinghe's ten years in the Hou Mansion were ten years in which his father did not care for him, his aunt's mother disliked him, and his aunt's sister bullied him. Her biological mother died unexpectedly and her younger brother was frail and sick. She restrained her sharpness and pretended to be a soft persimmon that could be manipulated. In fact, she secretly inherited her mother's business and practiced herbal medicine and medical skills to perfection - a bowl of soothing soup can soothe anger, a cup of tonic meal can heal old wounds, and a dose of detoxifying soup can break the conspiracy.
At the Marquis's family banquet, the eldest sister deliberately made things difficult and forced her to cook. She took advantage of the situation and presented a dish of angelica, ginger and mutton soup. It was intended to protect herself, but it accidentally caught the eye of Yongning Hou Xiao Jue. The iron-blooded prince, who had great military exploits and a cold temperament, but suffered from cold and insomnia all year round due to old injuries on the battlefield, actually slept peacefully for the first time after taking it.
From then on, Xiao Jue forcibly connected her to the Hou Mansion on the grounds of "healing old wounds." At first, he was sarcastic and distant, but when he saw her protecting her young brother with her gentle eyebrows and eyes, solving his problems with her exquisite thoughts, and warming his cold body with delicious medicinal food, his frozen heart gradually sank.
When she investigates her mother's hatred, he clears the way for her; when she is bullied, he supports her and establishes her authority. His cold syndrome needs to be cured by her medicinal diet, and his loneliness needs her gentle redemption; and her past pain is slowly healing with his preference and protection.
From a humble concubine in the Hou Mansion to a well-known medicated lady in the capital, from testing each other to running in both directions, Shen Qinghe realized that on the road to revenge, one can also reap the warmth of the heart. But who can tell me why the Marquis, who is so decisive in attacking the outside world, always insists on her taking medicinal food in private?
Purpose: The fictional dynasty "Dajing Dynasty" has a stable situation in the court, with occasional fights between powerful officials (light on political intrigue, and does not involve sensitive political content). The social atmosphere is open, and women can study medicine and cooking (rationalizing the skill set of the female protagonist). The core scenes revolve around the inner courtyard of the Marquis's mansion, the pharmacy in the capital, and the royal kitchen (the scene is safe, without bloody violence or feudal dross elements).
