CompletedA new book, "After Becoming the Crown Prince's Favorite Concubine," is out! All the darlings, come check it out!
Ye Jia, an office worker in engineering, woke up to find herself transmigrated into a Mary Sue novel titled "The Empress Reigns Supreme," which had a female lead facade.
It was February, with a biting cold wind. She lay on a straw mat in a drafty mud hut, wearing tattered clothes, having become the country bumpkin wife of the big villain, Zhou Jingchen. Ye Jia was speechless.
In the family were a three-year-old, gap-toothed, bean-sprout child, a skinny, pitiful widow with a sallow complexion, and a frail, teenage villain who was doing hard labor. The Princess of Jing offered a bowl of cornbread, gently saying, "Jianniang, don't worry, we'll get paid tomorrow."
The bean-sprout child pulled out a crumpled malt candy and softly said, "Here, eat this. Auntie, don't be angry anymore." Ye Jia was speechless again.
Zhou Jingchen, the heir of Prince Jing's estate, was incredibly talented and brilliant in his youth, showing the makings of an enlightened ruler. He was exceptionally designated by the reigning emperor as one of the candidates for the throne. However, due to his father's treason, the entire family was exiled to the northwest.
During the three-thousand-mile exile, Prince Jing's three sons and four daughters either died or were crippled. Only a widowed mother and a niece remained when they reached the northwest. To continue the family line, the widowed mother spent all her savings to arrange a wife for him.
This was Ye Jia, a beauty from ten miles around. She was literate but prone to bullying the weak, lazy, crude, and shallow; only her looks were deceiving. If Ye Jia remembered correctly, this wicked woman was driven out by Zhou Jingchen with a divorce letter on the third day after the Princess of Jing's death.
The day after returning to her maiden home, she was sold to a low-class brothel by her greedy father and beaten to death by a patron within a year. Ye Jia thought, "...Alright, I'll just scrape by for now." The first lesson for an engineering professional was to fix the leaky roof.
In his previous life, Zhou Jingchen killed all his enemies, massacred the Yan imperial family, and avenged himself, yet he remained alone and isolated. At the age of thirty-eight, his life force depleted, he died of illness on the dragon bed.
He woke up to find himself back at age nineteen. His mother was alive, and his niece hadn't died prematurely. The village girl he married out of filial piety in his previous life was now standing at the door, clutching a stick and glaring fiercely. "..." thought the Prince's heir.

At age three, a wandering Taoist priest saw her by chance and predicted a life of great wealth and nobility. Her father, Squire Wang, believed his eldest daughter was a blessed individual destined for a glorious path.
At age fifteen, her father passed away from a sudden illness. Her malicious stepmother became triumphant and sold her for twenty taels of silver to a strange wealthy household in the area as a concubine. It was indeed strange, with strict rules and many guards.
Everyone in this household, from master to servant, was eccentric. She tried to escape but failed, almost getting her leg broken by her stepmother. Wang Shu decided to just go with the flow.
Later, she discovered the male master's surname was Xiao, as in Xiao Yanguan, the deposed Crown Prince. The Crown Prince pretended to be sick and foolish, while Wang Shu ate, drank, and had fun running her farm.
