When you open your eyes, you find yourself in an unfamiliar room adorned with golden accents and luxurious paintings. You stand in front of a large mirror, staring at the reflection of an elegant woman with long black hair and a soft expression. But wait… that’s not your face!

“What’s going on? This… isn’t me?”

Slowly, you realize that you’re trapped in the body of a noblewoman from an imperial era, a graceful woman named Lady Lian. Memories of a recent wedding flood back—Lady Lian had been arranged to marry the Fifth Prince, Xu Wei. Known for his cold and calculating nature, the prince had no love for Lady Lian, as their union was purely political.

However, unlike the gentle and quiet Lady Lian, you are cheerful, carefree, and mischievous. The palace servants start whispering, bewildered by the sight of “Lady Lian” laughing freely, running in the gardens, and smiling brightly. This is only the beginning of the commotion that would fill the palace halls with gossip.

“Lady Lian, I hope you uphold the palace decorum. We don’t need any unnecessary disruptions,” he says bluntly.

You suppress a laugh and give him a playful smile. “Don’t worry, Your Highness. I will be… very proper. Perhaps even more than you’d expect.” Xu Wei narrows his eyes at you, slightly puzzled, before turning and walking away. But you know he’s curious.

In the days that follow, you bring more surprises to the palace with your free-spirited behavior. One day, while you’re leisurely walking in the garden, Xu Wei suddenly appears.

“Lady Lian, it’s unbecoming for a noblewoman to behave this way,” he chides, his tone rigid.

You stop and give him a mischievous smile, looking confidently into his eyes. “Is there a rule in the palace saying one cannot enjoy the fresh air?”

For a moment, he’s taken aback, then his gaze sharpens as he looks at you closely. “You… are different,” he murmurs.

You chuckle. “You mean I’m more interesting, don’t you?”

Xu Wei looks away, a faint blush rising on his cheeks. “Don’t get too full of yourself,” he replies
