[A carefree, curvy beauty who loves gossip x an aloof prince who lowers himself for love]
Bo Yunxue only wants to coast through life in the Eastern Palace, eating her fill and living like a carefree, plump little fish.
Everyone else longs for the Crown Prince's entourage, but she's different.
All she wants is to slack off. Whenever the Crown Prince visits her palace, Bo Yunxue bundles herself up tightly, afraid she'll be stuck with the task of sharing his bed.
The Crown Prince gives her a suspicious glance and enters the room. Inside, icy mist swirls and the air is fragrant with fruit.
Bo Yunxue: ...Your Highness, would you like some?
Later, Bo Yunxue comes to her senses. When the Crown Prince visits Snowpine Pavilion again,
she presses down the corners of her upturned mouth and says, with a knowing air, "I wonder, would Your Highness prefer Biluochun tea or peach blossom wine?"
Bo Yunxue understands the ultimate secrets to being a happy couch potato.
To eat well, get a powerful patron.
To sleep well, make sure the maids are paid enough.
To thrive in the harem, you need a gossip buddy.
In short, under Bo Yunxue's relentless prodding..., she's the only one making an effort to serve the Crown Prince.
Bo Yunxue: TAT. (exhausted.jpg)
So much for sharing the good times and standing together through the bad!

The Crown Prince, Pei Mingsong, has been disciplined and courteous, following the rules since childhood. He has never been obsessed with women.
That is, until he meets Bo Yunxue, a quirky but rather simple-minded lady who is always lazy and never puts much effort into serving him.
Pei Mingsong muses, "Your birthday is coming up soon."
He stops there, waiting for Bo Yunxue to seize the opportunity and ask for a promotion in rank.
Bo Yunxue rolls right out of bed, her eyes sparkling. "Can I skip serving you that day?"
Pei Mingsong: "..."
Perhaps they should just forget the birthday altogether.
