The Carefree Prince-Consort of Xiaoyao

share time: 2025-10-03 12:41:14

Lin Chuan, a modern corporate slave, died from overworking while revising a proposal. When he woke up, he found himself as the "most useless" prince-consort of Xiaoyao County in the Great Chu Dynasty—married to the cold and formidable Princess Shen Qingge, but never having shared a room with her, and mocked by the entire county as a gigolo. He planned to lie low and live a lazy life, but the princess suddenly handed him a divorce letter: "Once I quell the chaos in the northwest, I'll divorce you, this good-for-nothing." Just then, a locust plague struck Xiaoyao County, sending food prices soaring and people fleeing. The imperial court ignored their pleas, dismissing it as a "remote small county." Lin Chuan had no choice but to use his modern operational thinking: crowdfunding grain and money from wealthy families, implementing "work-for-food" programs to build water conservancy projects, and successfully alleviating the disaster. Little did he know, Shen Qingge was watching him from the shadows... Is his "uselessness" an act? Or does he hide abilities she never knew? And how will their relationship reverse because of this disaster?
