Imperfect Reply & Don't Fall for Me

share time: 2026-01-22 12:34:46

Su Wan, an unfavored concubine's daughter of the prime minister's mansion, offended the emperor with an "imperfect" reply at the palace banquet and was given as a concubine to Xiao Jingheng, the God of War prince rumored to "kill wives and heirs". Expecting death, she stumbled into the tenderness the prince had hidden for 18 years—he gave her a warm stove when she was woken by cold water after being poisoned, and wrapped his cloak around her in public when her sisters mocked her as "vulgar", saying: "My woman, even if her reply is imperfect, she's the most special." But when Su Wan quietly fell in love, Xiao Jingheng suddenly turned hostile, locking her in a side courtyard: "Don't fall for me—I want the throne." Until the enemy surrounded the city, Su Wan used her "marketplace strategies" to help him break the siege, only to discover the prince's "heartlessness" was a lie—he had long written "marry Su Wan as queen" on the most prominent page of his succession plan.
