After Being Struck by Lightning, the Chancellor Gained Mind-Reading Powers

Xie Siyan discovers she has transmigrated into a book, becoming the divorced wife of a prime minister who doesn’t survive past the first episode. Rubbing her hands together, she prepares to make a big impression and put her acting skills to good use.

Concubine Zhao fakes a fall into the water and a miscarriage to frame her. Xie Siyan takes out a handkerchief and is just about to start sobbing, but the prime minister, Xiao Jifeng, sends Concubine Zhao to a family temple instead.

Concubine Bai plans to join forces with outsiders to ruin Xie Siyan’s daughter’s reputation. Xie Siyan has barely mentioned it when the prime minister confines Concubine Bai to her quarters.

Concubine Huang repays kindness with treachery. Before Xie Siyan can even make a move, the prime minister sends her off to Lingnan.

Everyone: “Has the master been struck by lightning and lost his mind?”

Xie Siyan flies into a rage and flips the table. “Are you going to let me get on with some proper household scheming or not…?”

Just as Xiao Jifeng is hoping to win his wife back, Xie Siyan frantically packs a small bundle in the middle of the night.

“To hell with you, you scumbag. I’ve put up with you long enough.” She turns and throws herself into the arms of her devoted cousin, Qi Huaiyuan.

Xiao Jifeng: “…Weren’t you supposed to be deeply devoted to me?”
