Su Li inexplicably transmigrates into the body of an unlucky miracle doctor who was poisoned to death by the Empress Dowager. To stay alive, she has no choice but to cling to the emperor and bask in his protection.
As a young woman from the twenty-first century, she believes that freedom is a virtue. So she hatches a plan: once she solves the Su family murder and cures the emperor’s illness, she’ll slip out of the palace and live a carefree life.
But before she can make her escape, the emperor pulls her into a romance.
The usually aloof emperor turns exceptionally clingy once he falls in love. He can’t go even half a moment without Su Li:
Little Li’er, come take my pulse.
Little Li’er, come dine with me.
Little Li’er, come scrub my back.
Su Li isn’t having it. She turns away and throws in the towel. Whoever wants this romance can have it!
The emperor panics and quickly changes tactics, studying the “Good Man’s Rulebook.” From then on, he embarks on the irreversible path of being a henpecked husband who spoils his wife.
