[Wait for me to come back!]
[Skilled Physician, Vengeful Princess x Cool-Headed, Scheming, Blind Heir]
Jiang Wanmei grew up in a country medicine hut, but at seventeen, an imperial decree summoned her to the palace. Only then did she learn that she was the emperor's long-lost biological daughter: the Ninth Princess of the Dacheng Kingdom.
The first thing the emperor did after bringing Jiang Wanmei to the palace was neither grant her birth mother a title nor make up for the loneliness of her first seventeen years. Instead, he used her as a bargaining chip to win over court officials, sending her off in a bridal sedan with a marriage contract to become the wife of Zhong Li, heir to the Run'an Marquis household.
Jiang Wanmei: What a scumbag of a father.
After arriving in the capital, Jiang Wanmei learned that there might be more to her birth mother's death, and that the culprit was likely a powerful figure. To take revenge, she had no choice but to use the Run'an Marquis household as a stepping-stone and establish a foothold in the capital.
But all her plans changed the moment she married into the Run'an Marquis household: her husband, Zhong Li, the heir to the Run'an Marquis, was blind.
Jiang Wanmei rolled up her sleeves, prepared her needles, and pointed at her new husband. "So you're blind? Come here. Let this princess treat you."
*
People in the capital had only two things to say about Zhong Li, heir to the Run'an Marquis household: handsome as an immortal, and blind.
Zhong Li was born to a prominent family but drew the envy of petty men. As a child, someone poisoned him and stole his sight. In his youth, he was caught up in a struggle between his family and the imperial court. He had only the title of heir, while the capital's spoiled young nobles framed him at will and his own brothers were all cold and heartless.
With no other choice, he played the fool to catch the tiger, keeping to himself in the manor and pretending to care about nothing. Only the delicate little princess generously gave him her sincere affection, keeping him from losing himself in the materialistic city of Shengjing.
The night Zhong Li removed the white bandage over his eyes, he looked at the little princess sleeping soundly beside him, and turmoil surged in his heart.
"Everyone says we were made for each other."
"Mei'er."
"Did you know we've been reunited after ten years apart?"
