Only after Jiang Yi met Jin Mantang did he learn that a woman could be so vulgar, shameless, and brazen!
She actually made him dress as a woman and pretend to be her wife. Did she have any idea who he was? He was merely down on his luck for the time being!
After making him do the laundry and cook, Jiang Yi declared that anyone who revealed his secret identity would have to fight him for it. He would never admit that he was the lofty crown prince. It would be utterly humiliating if anyone found out.
He had once fallen into the clutches of a brothel. She bought him for a high price and promised to treat him well for the rest of his life. She couldn't go back on her word. He was sticking to her, and he'd cling to her forever.
From the female lead's perspective:
To avoid the matchmakers who kept trying to set her up, Jin Mantang bought a male courtesan and made him dress up as her wife. He was beautiful, virtuous, obedient, and no trouble at all. His only flaw was his lack of life skills: he couldn't do laundry, cook, or clean.
Apart from his looks, he was utterly useless.
No problem. He could learn.
Jin Mantang specially asked the neighbor auntie to teach him. Everyone who taught him said Jin Mantang had found herself a wonderful wife: a quick learner with a great memory, and an incredible talent for embroidery.
Jin Mantang was pleased with him too, except that her wife's identity was a little complicated.
She thought that once he returned to the palace, they would each go their own way. But who could have guessed he'd cry, make a scene, and pout, insisting that she come along?
Female lead: Filthy mouth, sharp tongue, restless hands, uncertain abilities, just trying to survive one day at a time.
Male lead: The crown prince, fair-skinned and beautiful, delicate and frail, forced to pick up an embroidery needle.
