Jiang Ning limped out of her quarters one day and entered the Jiang family's second courtyard, just as the Emperor was selecting a concubine for Prince Yu.
Noble ladies from high-ranking families put in their best efforts to participate in the selection, but the flower fell on Jiang Ning, who was merely there to watch the spectacle.
Jiang Ning was confused. She dared not let Prince Yu be a scapegoat, so she tried every possible way to tell everyone she was pregnant. However, no one believed her.
When she vomited after eating, they laughed at her for feigning illness. When she felt tired, they laughed at her for pretending to be delicate. When her belly grew larger, they laughed at her for overeating.
When Jiang Ning wanted a doctor's confirmation, all eighteen doctors she consulted had the same opinion: "You're just eating too much!"
The fifth prince, Prince Yu, was a dashing and handsome young man. He exuded an air of sophistication and regal beauty. This was how the common people of Chang'an City typically described him.
But the real Prince Yu was cold and ruthless, using women without any emotional attachment.
He knew that the second madam of the Jiang family was the Emperor's secret love, and he also knew that the daughter recently brought back by the Jiang family looked exactly like the second madam in her youth.
So, even though the girl had a limp, he still tossed the embroidered flower in his hand into her lap.
After their marriage, he knew she was just a pawn. But for the sake of the throne, he had to pretend to cherish her even though he detested her, until...

Viết đánh giáth FL is a transmigrator with her common sense and modern sense of analysis intact throughout the story. a unique feature is that the FL is disabled and suffers from weak legs even after her limp is cured.ML is a yandere and does a lot of toxic things which is NOT CONDONED in the story. FL cannot break up because of oldtimey manipulation by the emperor BUT she's strong and builds her abilities to understand old political intrigues and doesn't depend on the ML
Tiết lộ SpoilerI did not have much expectations. Out of the new novels that WN are pushing to users, this is the only one that had a summary which kept original names. This story is hilarious! If you're into exaggerated comedy then give this a chance. It also becomes serious at certain parts depicting themes such as how men treat women, family relationships, etc. I couldn't wait for WN to publish more chapters so I actually read ahead from MTL... this story is worth supporting! The FL is strong and for the most part reasonable but she's not perfect. I don't care much about the ML though... maybe I need to read more to feel differently about him but he has been abusive, condescending, manipulative... you hopefully get the gist.Hopefully the translation quality stays the same or improve and WN doesn't randomly change names, etc. for the this story!
Amazing story ...... the mystery behind FL pregnancy and character design of ML and FL really make people asking for more No harem drama of older generation but will see for younger ones.
I hve completed the mtl version of this novel and I hve lived the story. till the very last chapter there is suspense .keeps u hooked. I really enjoyed it.
Very cautious here... I'd hate to get my hopes up!! FL seemed pretty stupid at the beginning, then it became clear that she's just not on the same wavelength I anticipate lots of fun as modern and antiques (wee pun!) clash and all the mysteries are solved.fingers crossed
i don't like the ml character. He just use a woman as a tool to become the emperor and has no respect to female lead at all.
Dropped at chapter 211 when the ML rapes the FL. I was enjoying the story until that point. The ML was arrogant and unkind, but he was young and his parents weren’t great role models, so I had hope that his character would mature and improve as the story progressed. At chapter 211, he became irredeemable in my book. Very disappointing and disgusting!
Tiết lộ SpoilerThe story is very standard for this genre. The biggest unique selling point is the FL and her family.. The story has the usual lost and found daughter trope - the Dad has several concubines who run rampant while main wife (FL's mother) suffers from depression .... But there's no long drawn out drama, Dad wholeheartedly supports his main family ... ML is the usual Jerk found in most novels - cold hard, controlling and devious..... Difference is FL is equally shrewd doesn't fall for his manipulations and mind games.... The author's done a good job of mainta the good family relations in the FL's family while exploring the motivations, intrigues of the royal family especially the emperor and ML.... There's not much romance. If you're expecting the FL to be swept away by the ML's overbearing attitude and fall head over heels - she never does.... And that's why this novel reminds me of "The Job of the Imperial Concubine" a lot.
First few chapters i thought its boring but then as i read along i got so entertained and it kept me wanting to read more. I just love the way the fl character. Shes not weak and shes not taking any abuse or nonsense from anyone even from the ml. Most of all i love the JIANG family. They are all mighty and contributed greatly in the story! Im only at chapter 179 so i have more to read! It will costs a lot of money to read them all! 😢. Sadly i might not be able to read all chapters as its so expensive. I can cope with 300/500 chapter but a thousand will cost me arms and legs!
I have quite mixed feelings about the main characters and actually stopped reading for a while as I got a bit exasperated by them. Surprisingly, this story ends beautifully and satisfyingly. No regrets here. What a satisfying and captivating story. Well done, author! Keep on writing better stories! ☺
This book is refreshing without the FL having super powers or systems and just being perfect in every way. So far the ML has been a dud… hoping to see him change and appreciate what he has.
🤔 I came for a fast pass I was only gonna stay for 5 minutes 🙄 🌀 I live here now 🏡
