Reborn as the Disabled Crown Prince's Substitute Groom

Male college student Wu Zhen transmigrates into the game World of Chaos as the young lord Zhen of Wu. The moment he opens his eyes, he finds that Wu has just lost a war.

Not only must they cede cities and pay reparations, they must also send a young lord to marry into the victorious state of Yu, as both spouse and hostage.

His intended is the Crown Prince of Yu, Zhan, who led the army that crushed Wu.

They say he was poisoned on the battlefield, his face horribly disfigured, both legs crippled. When his illness flares up, he recognizes no one and kills without blinking...

Wu Zhen, forced to take his elder brother's place in the marriage: "!" Help!

-

But on their wedding night, Yu Zhan, whose face is as hideous as a demon's, proposes a deal.

"I've heard you're skilled in medicine, Young Lord. If you can cure my poison and heal my legs, I'll set you free someday..."

Wu Zhen, an agricultural sciences student, is devastated. He should have applied to medical school back then!

Yu Zhan, expressionless: "How do you plan to treat me?"

Straightforward Wu Zhen, QAQ: "D-drink more hot water?"

The moment the man hears this, his eyes turn red, and he looks ready to have an episode and kill someone. Then a mechanical voice sounds in Wu Zhen's mind.

"Ding-dong! Player System fully loaded. Newbie gift pack, 'Potatoes x999,' has been placed on the game map."

Wu Zhen's eyes light up. There's hope!

"I may not know how to treat illnesses, but I know how to farm!"

As he explores the System, he gradually unlocks skills: carpentry, farming, cooking, animal husbandry, weaving, management...

Later, after unlocking the medical skill, Wu Zhen not only heals Yu Zhan's legs, but also cures the poison in his body.

Yu Zhan is both a scholar and a warrior. Though still young, he has already earned a reputation as a God of War. Yet in the battle against Wu, he ends up poisoned, crippled, and disfigured.

The world laments the fall of a genius, all of them mourning his fate.

Who could have guessed that the crippled crown prince, who takes his husband with him to his fief, would thrive more and more?

The granaries are full, the livestock fat, the homes orderly, and talented people gather there. He even regularly comes up with new things, making a fortune.

When the time is right, Yu Zhan, who has been confined to a wheelchair all this time, suddenly rises to his feet and leads a powerful army.

He sweeps across the land, conquers every realm, and brings the chaotic era to an end.

-

After achieving his goals, Wu Zhen wants to retire. He packs his belongings, leaves a divorce letter behind, and prepares to head south to enjoy his retirement in a pleasant climate.

Wu Zhen: "At last, I can lie flat and be a lazy fish~"

Unexpectedly, just outside the city gate,

he sees the new emperor, who has been waiting there with his troops.

Yu Zhan grits his teeth: "You want to lie down? How about lying down in my bed?"

Straightforward Wu Zhen, cautiously: "Can I say no?"

Yu Zhan smiles: "What do you think?"

Wu Zhen: "qaq"
