After Marrying the Disabled Grand Princess

Lin Min transmigrated to a kingdom ruled by an empress and became the husband of the disabled Grand Princess. After an accident left Grand Princess Xie Huazhao unable to walk, she lost her right to inherit the throne. Her siblings then plotted to humiliate her by framing her for an affair with Lin Min, forcing her to marry him, a hostage prince from an enemy kingdom.

The original Lin Min couldn't bear the humiliation, so he went out of his way to torment the Grand Princess. In summer, he made her leave the house under the blazing sun on the pretext of an outing. In winter, he withheld the charcoal for her room.

Not only that, Lin Min kept a harem of men for illicit affairs. Whenever he came back drunk, he whipped her with a salt-soaked lash and humiliated her without end. So the first thing Xie Huazhao did after seizing power was have the original Lin Min executed by slow slicing.

When Lin Min learned his fate, he was standing in Xie Huazhao's room. It was bitterly cold in winter, yet there wasn't a single brazier in her room. The original Lin Min had even stripped away her only garment, leaving her body covered in whip marks.

Just transmigrated into this world, Lin Min met Xie Huazhao's dark, icy gaze, brimming with hatred. His hand trembled, and the whip fell to the floor. I'm so screwed!

Once the darling of heaven, Xie Huazhao had been the first heir to the throne of the Empress's kingdom. She was accomplished in both letters and arms, but when her horse went berserk on a hunt, she fell off a cliff. Not only were her legs left disabled, costing her the right to inherit the throne, but she was also forced into marriage with Lin Min and humiliated by her every day.

But one day, Lin Min suddenly changed. She stopped beating and humiliating Xie Huazhao, searched far and wide for renowned doctors to treat her legs, and carefully gave her acupuncture and massages every day. She was considerate in every aspect of daily life, never going west when Xie Huazhao told her to go east.

One day, after drinking, she even confessed her sins and, overcome with emotion, carried a bundle of thorn branches on her back to beg for forgiveness.

But...

The moment Xie Huazhao struck her with the whip, Lin Min cried, "Ow!" and leaped two miles away, staring in disbelief. "Good heavens, you really hit me!?"

Hmph.

So it really was all an act.

.

Lin Min thought her devoted care would earn her forgiveness, but as they spent more time together, she gradually learned a despairing truth: Xie Huazhao seemed aloof and above worldly concerns, but she was full of schemes and took revenge on anyone who slighted her. Everyone who had offended her met a gruesome end.

So on the first day she realized this, Lin Min started planning to finish making amends and then pack up and run home.

And she succeeded.

On her first day back home, she used her savings to open a massage parlor serving women.

One month after she escaped, Xie Huazhao arrived at the gates with a vast army.

The Emperor of Ping Kingdom packed Lin Min up and handed her over in the middle of the night.

In a dimly lit room, Lin Min was tied up like a dumpling, waiting for death with a heavy heart.

But death never came. Instead, Xie Huazhao appeared.

Her eyes were shadowed with gloom as she looked at Lin Min, though a smile curled her lips. Her slender fingers clamped tightly around Lin Min's chin, and her voice was gentle yet vicious. "You can go nowhere but by my side."
