Synopsis
In the Dynasty, princesses not only had the authority to raise their own private armies but also possessed vast fiefdoms and manors. Their temperaments were often arrogant and tyrannical, and while killing their consorts wasn’t common, it wasn’t unheard of either.
Princess Zhanghua, the only daughter of Empress Zhuo, embodied unparalleled power and wealth. Rumored to be hideously ugly with a sinister disposition and treacherous schemes, she had already claimed the lives of two prospective consorts.
As the princesses gathered to select their consorts, Princess Zhanghua became a figure of terror, her mere presence sending shivers down the spines of all who heard her name.
Yin Xing, who had transmigrated into this world, found himself among the unlucky prospective consorts summoned to the capital for the selection ceremony.
That very night, Yin Xing resolved to flee and escape the marriage to save his life. Yet, through a twist of fate, he inadvertently became the consort of the infamous Princess Zhanghua.
Fortunately, Princess Zhanghua proved to be nothing like the monstrous figure of legend. Instead, she was beautiful, gentle, and kind, even forgiving Yin Xing’s grave deception.
It seemed the rumors were nothing more than malicious fabrications spread by those jealous of Princess Zhanghua’s status, seeking to tarnish her reputation and mislead the masses.
Determined to repay Princess Zhanghua’s kindness, Yin Xing secretly resolved to work tirelessly, not caring if he was ridiculed as a henpecked husband.
Little did Yin Xing know that his beautiful and gentle princess wife would later seize power and become a ruthless Empress, ruling the Dynasty with an iron fist.
Apart from the false rumors about her hideous appearance, the rest might have been true. Those who had clashed with him had mysteriously vanished, one by one!
