Li Yu accidentally transmigrates into a book and becomes the villainess of the story: the prince's unwillingly wedded consort. She is doomed to die as soon as he returns with the woman he truly loves.
So before the prince returns to the capital, Li Yu frantically starts amassing money, waiting for the right moment to flee with it.
What she doesn't know is that the prince she thinks she can leave behind has a drama queen living inside him. He only wants to win her heart and reach a happily-ever-after ending with her.
So one makes a desperate escape while the other gives chase.
A naive, overworked consort who only wants to grab the money and run × a domineering, melodramatic prince who only wants to win her heart
When the prince returns victorious from the border, Li Yu runs off with his secondary consort, her aunt, and all the gold and jewelry.
But she gets intercepted along the way.
The prince says, heartbroken, “My consort, I fought desperately on the battlefield just so I could return to you sooner. Is this really how you treat me?”
Li Yu: ?
The prince's true love appears, and Li Yu knows this is bad. She runs off with the money again, this time without the secondary consort and her aunt, taking only the gold and jewelry.
But she's intercepted along the way once more.
The prince gives her a charming smile. “A Yu, are you jealous? I promise you, there's never been anyone else in my heart. Will you still leave?”
Li Yu: ?
The prince's true love wants to meet Li Yu. Knowing this is bad, Li Yu runs away yet again. This time she takes neither the secondary consort and her aunt nor the gold and jewelry.
She gets intercepted along the way.
The prince's true love sobs uncontrollably. “A Yu, I know you resent me because rumors about the prince and me have spread everywhere, but I really don't like him. I only like you...”
Li Yu and Jin Yue: ?
