Transmigrated into the body of a pitiful girl whom nobody loves or cares about, and unable to die her way back, what should she do?
Her scheming grandmother tricks her into marrying in place of her cousin to bring good luck to the prince: "Once you marry him, you'll be a princess consort, surrounded by wealth and bowed to by everyone. When Prince Mu passes away, you'll live in silks and riches..."
Bai Li hears this and thinks: a promotion, wealth, and a dead husband? Sounds great!
So she nods. "I'll marry him!"
After marrying into the prince's household, she constantly hovers around Prince Mu, speaking sweetly, caring for him, and watching to see when he'll finally kick the bucket. Life is pretty carefree.
But why is Prince Mu, who was supposedly on the brink of death, starting to recover? Bringing good luck through marriage isn't scientific at all!
Here's the problem: because she's so diligent and plays her part too well, Prince Mu seems to really like her. As soon as he gets better, he wants to consummate their marriage.
Prince Mu couldn't care less about the marriage arranged by the palace to bring him good luck. He never expected the princess consort he married to be so beautiful, considerate, and patient, always thinking of him. She was like a bright streak of color dispelling the gloom of his household.
Even a heart of stone melted under her care.
He knew she had been forced into the marriage and had suffered all kinds of grievances, so he was willing to cherish and protect her, indulge her little temper tantrums, and coax her into happiness, hoping that one day she would come to care for him.
If peace could last, he wanted to share a quiet, steady life with her and grow old by her side.
If it couldn't... then he would rally his iron cavalry, conquer the land, and protect her so she could live a life of honor, joy, and worry-free prosperity.
