Extra scene:

One day, Yi Zhaoxue suddenly realized that the Crown Prince had chosen her clothes, given her the writing brushes and ink she always used, and even personally mixed the incense in her palace!

- A marriage-first, love-later story with the male lead throwing himself at the female lead. She never falls for him and is naturally, unconsciously cruel to men. She might only fall for him near the end.

- The male lead is clear-headed as he throws himself at her, and is hopelessly lovestruck. He will never delude himself into thinking she likes him.

- The female lead doesn't meet the standards of an ancient virtuous wife and mother in any way. Read with care if that bothers you.

- A Mary Sue story set in a fictionalized world heavily inspired by the Tang Dynasty, written for pure self-indulgence.
