Lin Youchan discovers she has transmigrated into the body of Lin Liuniang, a daughter of the Lin family who was secretly switched out by her legitimate elder sister and married off in her place.
Lin Liuniang is frail and sickly. According to the doctor, she has only a year left to live.
After finally managing to recover, all she gets is a divorce agreement.
Fine, a divorce it is!
Lin Youchan happily heads to the capital to seek out the biological father her mother once told her about, a man called Jiang.
But the capital has a new emperor, and a whole generation of new officials has replaced the old. Lord Jiang has been down on his luck for years.
Mistaking the newly appointed Chief Minister, Lord Jiang, for her father, Lin Youchan boldly shows up at his door to claim kinship.
*
Lord Jiang has always been feared for his iron-fisted methods, cruelty, and sinister nature. He helped the new emperor ascend the throne, after all.
Never having taken a wife, Lord Jiang never imagined anyone would dare to claim to be his daughter.
His face turns cold and his eyes narrow, suspicious of a trick. "Are you really my daughter? What proof do you have?"
Lin Youchan immediately takes out the keepsakes she has carried for ages and presents them one by one.
Years later, the eldest Miss Lin arrives in the capital with her husband to take up a post and pay her respects to Chief Minister Jiang.
To her astonishment, the famous young lady of the Jiang household, the capital's miracle doctor, is actually the concubine-born younger sister who was married off in her place all those years ago!
*
Lord Jiang is still ruthless and merciless, but whenever he mentions his daughter, his face fills with indulgent affection.
That's my daughter, all right. What a capable girl!
Lord Jiang is still waiting at the Ten-Mile Pavilion, gazing into the distance as he speaks of the daughter he holds dear.
When will my precious girl come to the capital and seek refuge with me?
