The Heir Is Easy to Placate Today, Too

[Gentle, resilient, beloved princess born deaf X dashing, carefree heir who excels at sweet talk]

Miao'an's hearing will be cured!!! Read without worry!!!

[Male Lead's Perspective]

The young heir of the Helian family had thought that this trip down the mountain would be nothing more than curing the ears of the emperor's younger sister, the infinitely esteemed Princess Changning, and repaying a debt of gratitude. Then he could return to the mountain and resume his carefree life.

But Miao'an wasn't anything like the rumors... Who said she merely couldn't hear? There seemed to be something wrong with her voice, too.

To cure her, Helian Rongchen went to great lengths, gathering rare treasures from heaven and earth to make medicine for her.

But what good was it for a doctor to devote himself so wholeheartedly to treating her?

Whenever Princess Changning saw him, she dodged him like a mouse avoiding a cat. She wouldn't even take a sip of the medicine he'd painstakingly prepared, and would have her maids secretly pour it away.

At last, one day, he caught her in the act while hiding on the wall of the princess's residence. Holding a bamboo stick, he wrote on the ground:

"Your Highness, why won't you take my medicine?"

To his surprise, the princess, who never spoke, opened her mouth.

"That day, I saw you swindling people in the city. I don't take medicine from a fraud."

Helian Rongchen: "????"

They say, "A mute eating bitter herbs has troubles he can't tell anyone about."

So Helian Rongchen could only pore over ancient texts to find a cure for Princess Changning while doing everything he could to clear his name.

But the old man he'd supposedly swindled had long since disappeared, and Princess Changning was determined not to believe him. There was nothing he could do.

Still, Helian Rongchen was intent on curing Princess Changning's ears so he could return to the mountains as soon as possible and live freely, like a cloud or a wild crane.

With no other choice, he served at the princess's side every day to win her affection, and promised to grant her a hundred wishes.

"Your Highness may make a hundred wishes of me. Whatever you wish for, I will do everything in my power to fulfill it."

But after making that promise, Helian Rongchen gradually fell in love and could no longer leave. For the rest of his life, he willingly stayed by Changning's side.

Only... he was willing to do so, but nobody told him he'd have so many love rivals...?

[Female Lead's Perspective]

Though Miao'an was born deaf, she was loved by everyone around her.

Her mother doted on her from childhood, her late father cherished her, the imperial consorts thought of her constantly, and her royal sisters and brothers had always protected her.

She had few worries... except that the physician Helian, who came to treat her when she was twenty, was a little too annoying.

It was bad enough that he swindled people in front of the city gates. How could he now brazenly move into the princess's residence to treat her?

Besides... could she really take medicine from a fraud?

As soon as Helian Rongchen brought her the medicine, she ordered a maid to pour it away. Unfortunately, the man also loved climbing walls, and he caught her in the act.

Even after catching her, he wasn't angry. He even promised her a hundred wishes. In that case... Miao'an's first wish was:

"I want Father to come back to life."

Helian Rongchen then put all his effort into learning shadow puppetry and performed it for her... Fine, he had technically fulfilled it.

Gradually, Miao'an began to enjoy teasing him. One day she wanted the stars in the sky for company, the next she wanted a fine steed that could travel a thousand li in a night. He managed to fulfill every wish, and even moved into her heart and became her prince consort.

Fine... a prince consort it is. But...

"My hundredth wish is... could you please stay home and eat properly today? What's wrong with the painting my cousin made? Why did you have to spend a fortune buying it?"

"My dear, you don't know this, but the person in Young Master Su's painting is you. Looking at it gives me such a headache. Oh, my migraine's about to flare up."

Helian Rongchen really could be so petty.

1. Both leads are each other's one and only. One-on-one romance, beloved heroine, and sweet romance. The heroine has an irresistible charm, and the plot gets a little melodramatic~

The fated, quick-to-fight, top female war god of the four realms vs. the black-hearted, possessive immortal lord who seems "frail and sickly" but is actually devious

Shang Jiantang had lived for eighty-nine thousand years. Born with divine power, she became the youngest female war god in the four realms in just three hundred years.

If a god stood in her way, she killed the god. If a demon stood in her way, she killed the demon. She lived a life of absolute freedom.

She never imagined that one day she would be held back by a marriage and entangled with the famously delicate Lord of the Gods.

"Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, I refuse to marry Feng Sui. If there's a delicate little immortal lord at home, my fellow soldiers will laugh me to death whenever I go off to battle!"

She thought that would be enough to turn down the marriage to Feng Sui. After all, with her strength, what could she want to do and fail to accomplish?

But Feng Sui immediately collapsed to the ground and began sobbing as if at death's door.

"Sister War God, eight hundred years ago I cast a divination and learned that we are destined to be together. If you don't marry me, you'll die. For the sake of peace in the four realms, I'm willing to give myself to you."

"Then I might as well die."

Shang Jiantang had prepared herself to die if she had to, but no matter how ready she was, she couldn't guard against Feng Sui's "sinister intentions."

She only looked away for a moment, and the man woke up in her bed.

Even more terrifying, she had no idea when he'd climbed into it.

She looked at the frail immortal lord huddled in a corner, pale-faced and coughing incessantly like a willow in the wind, and felt a rare pang of "compassion."

"Get off my bed. Now. Or I'll take your life and offer it to my blade!"

Shang Jiantang thought she'd been rather merciful to Feng Sui. He was practically a "child" she'd watched grow up, after all, so she hadn't actually killed him.

Otherwise... by her old standards, Feng Sui would have died by her blade long ago.

She expected him to scramble away in terror, but instead he spat out a mouthful of blood onto the bed and fainted.

She could only put her blade away for the moment and call a doctor to examine him. Feng Sui was the old Heavenly Emperor's only son, after all. He couldn't be allowed to die so easily.

And that only son really was frail enough to be on the verge of death. After calculating and recalculating, the Star Lord of Destiny came up with just one way to prolong Feng Sui's life.

"Your Highness, War God, please marry Lord Feng Sui! It's the only way he can survive! For the sake of Heaven's plans, we beg you to sacrifice yourself and take part in this arrangement!"

And so, Shang Jiantang had no choice but to marry Feng Sui to bring him good fortune, and a "virtuous," delicate immortal lord joined her household.

But she never expected that the whole thing was an elaborate scheme by the supposedly frail immortal lord to deceive her.

By the time she finally realized what was going on, Feng Sui was already rosy-cheeked and carrying pastries around to win her favor.

"Sister War God, try these. I made perilla cakes recently, and I'm sure you'll like them."

"...All right, I'll try one."

[Reader's Guide: 1. It may seem like a comedy, but the story itself is more serious.

2. The male lead has a major gap between appearances and reality, but he won't act out of character. Be prepared.

3. The heroine is strong, incredibly strong. This isn't a story where the male lead is stronger than the female lead. From her point of view, it's a satisfying power fantasy.
