A Match Made in Splendor: The Northern Lands Princess Consort

In the modern world, Lin Ziyin is a mechanical engineering professor specially recruited by her school. She could have achieved great things in the field, but because of her family circumstances, she can only pursue mechanical research and teaching as side jobs, devoting herself wholeheartedly to her farm and restaurant business. Yet even her low-key approach can’t calm her older sister’s fury. One angry car crash sends her straight to ancient times.

She’s a good person, so why would Heaven send her to the sparsely populated northern frontier? The north is a borderland known as a death zone, and anyone exiled there is doomed to spend the rest of their life there. Still, Lin Ziyin is quite happy with her new identity. Even without her parents to protect her, she has her older brother, older sister, and grandfather looking out for her. And, of course, she has a younger brother and nephew who need her protection. That much family affection more than makes up for the inconveniences of poverty.

Being poor is no problem. She has experience farming, and the vast stretches of wasteland in the north seem tailor-made for her. The heavy workload doesn’t bother her either, since she can design all kinds of handy tools. The emperor is absurd, refusing to send supplies to Prince Ling, who has no fief, and the Tartars are shameless, raiding them every so often. None of that is a problem: she can come up with a solution to all of it. Prince Ling can hardly meet anyone without telling them how incredibly lucky he was to marry such a wonderful princess consort!
