The Princess Consort of Xiang

Jiang Xuexi, a young woman with a modern soul, unexpectedly finds herself in ancient times once again. She is the daughter of the Jiang family, the wealthiest merchant clan in the area. Her father forces her into an arranged marriage with the disabled young master of the Jia family. Jiang Xuexi appears to give in, but secretly makes extensive preparations to escape the marriage. By another stroke of chance, she rescues Prince Chu Tiankuo, the Ninth Prince, and makes the most unreasonable demand: she tells him to marry her. He agrees to take her as his bride in seven days. On the day the Jia family arrives to fetch her, the prince appears at the Jiang residence and declares that he will marry Jiang Xuexi as his princess consort. She has a playbook for household and palace intrigue, while he has one for political scheming. They marry first and fall in love later, growing to love each other even as they face one new crisis and enemy after another. Together, they eliminate their enemies. Sharing the same ideals and goals, they become each other's strongest support, growing together into the best versions of themselves.
