Setting: Great Yan. I've just transmigrated.
As the only daughter of the Crown Prince, Zhao Man's future should have been one of absolute luxury. She'd never even have to lift a finger to get dressed.
She was already looking forward to a life of extravagance and indulgence.
Then, overnight, the Crown Prince got into trouble.
The darling of heaven instantly became a poor little thing.
Zhao Man had no choice but to work diligently to stay alive.
But she never expected this:
Her grandfather, the emperor, searching everywhere for an heir: "Her disposition is the spitting image of mine."
The most renowned fortune-teller, who could communicate with ghosts and spirits and read the will of heaven: "She has the bearing of an imperial grandson. Her noble destiny is beyond words."
Her uncle, striving to seize the throne: "If she survives, she will surely become a great threat to me."
The three-dynasty veteran chancellor: "She is destined to rule, and could become a wise sovereign."

On the surface:
Everyone said Dou Xu was arrogant and domineering, and that Great Yan's dynasty might not survive much longer.
In truth:
Behind closed doors, Dou Xu lay awake night after night, afraid he'd spend the rest of his life leaning against the incense brazier until dawn.
The mighty Grand Marshal spent his days making sarcastic remarks.
Dou Xu: "Ever since I met Zhao Man, the days of all the young ladies in Luoyang throwing fruit at my carriage, and of riding proudly in fine clothes beneath the spring breeze, are over. I never again laugh in the taverns of the Hu people. There is only one person in my sight."
Zhao Man: "When people hear they're supposed to become emperor, they all say they're not worthy and pretend to refuse, even though they're being hypocritical. I'm different. The moment I heard, I said yes, yes, yes, and bought an overnight standing ticket to go get enthroned."
