Hua Xiaolan, code-named “Flower Demon,” is the ace of an international team of agents with supernatural abilities. After an accident, she transmigrates and wakes up as Hua Biyue, the foolish Ninth Miss of the Hua family in South City, the Kingdom of Huangwu. Someone has drugged her, stripped her, and sent her to the bed of a strange man.
Faced with an utterly gorgeous man, she doesn’t hesitate for a second. Nothing matters more than staying alive, and she’s already been drugged, so she might as well enjoy herself!
Who could have guessed?
Her fiancé’s family sends someone to accuse Hua Biyue of sleeping with another man before marriage and violating her womanly virtue, then calls off the engagement!
The lovesick Fifth Prince arrives to propose: “I took your virtue, so come with me!”
Then an imperial edict arrives, betrothing Hua Biyue to the dying Fourth Prince to bring him good luck!
Hua Xiaolan is furious. Do they still think she’s that silly Ninth Miss, Hua Biyue? She has the power to control flowers, and her mother, the head of the family, can pull strings for her. With just one of the family’s peerless cultivation manuals, she can roam the continent at will! So what if she’s marrying the Fourth Prince to bring him good luck? She swears she’ll make sure he dies for good!
But why won’t this supposedly dying Fourth Prince die, no matter what she does?
Scene One
“Husband, I made this rose tea myself. It beautifies the skin, keeps you youthful, promotes circulation, harmonizes the liver and spleen, regulates your qi, and soothes your stomach…” The young woman rambled on enthusiastically, gazing at her sickly husband. Most importantly, she had added something to the tea. It was guaranteed to be colorless and tasteless, and one sip would send him straight to his grave, all while looking like a natural death.
“Oh.” Huang Beichen replied blandly, took the cup, and drained it in one go. Then he turned it upside down to show her he’d finished it.
One minute, two minutes… an hour passed.
When she saw that Huang Beichen was still perfectly fine, the young woman’s face darkened completely.
Scene Two
“Husband, the Emperor saw that you still haven’t died after all this time and was afraid I couldn’t take care of you alone, so he sent over a dozen beauties. There’s even Miss Zhang, the daughter of Minister Zhang, who’s had a crush on you for ages! Don’t hold back, or you’ll disappoint the Emperor after all the effort he’s made for you!” The young woman munched on an apple, gloating. She certainly wasn’t about to admit that she’d suggested this to the Emperor.
Hmph. If poison can’t kill you, surely all these women at once can finish you off!
“Oh.” Huang Beichen replied just as blandly, as if it had nothing to do with him.
The next day, the young woman ran excitedly to Huang Beichen’s room to see the results, only to find every one of those beauties looking weak and listless, as if they were about to die…
“Huang Beichen, you… you’re way too much!”
“My dear wife was very thoughtful. The soldiers are returning victorious from the battlefield, and they certainly deserve a reward.”
The young woman was speechless.
