Reborn as the General's True Daughter! The Prime Minister Husband's Boundless Affection

Mu Rong Shu, a modern medical expert trained in both traditional Chinese and Western medicine, transmigrates into the body of the fifth miss of the General Mu Rong family. The original host had been sent to Tian Men Mountain as an infant to escape a predicted short life, returning only at age sixteen. Upon her arrival at the capital, the entire Mu Rong household, led by the frail but spirited Old Madam, welcomes her with overwhelming affection. Mu Rong Shu, accepting her new identity, resolves to live a leisurely life as a pampered young lady while utilizing her medical knowledge to help her family. She discovers she possesses a portable space containing her former hospital and laboratory, which automatically replenishes medical supplies, serving as her unique advantage in this ancient world.

During a shopping trip with her mother, Song Wei, and second aunt, Rong Qing, Mu Rong Shu encounters a medical emergency. Rong Qing’s brother, Rong Yun Nan, suffers a severe asthma attack at their family’s shop. Mu Rong Shu immediately takes charge, using her modern medical knowledge to diagnose the condition and administering emergency medication from her hidden space. Her swift and effective treatment relieves his suffering instantly. Impressed by her skills, the family patriarch, Master Mu Rong, grants her access to the family’s largest pharmacy and provides generous financial gifts. Mu Rong Shu promises to cure his chronic asthma completely within a year, a feat that delights the entire maternal family.

Following this success, Mu Rong Shu returns to the Mu Rong residence and creates beauty creams for her grandmother, mother, and aunt, further endearing herself to the family. The narrative then shifts to the influential Wen family, rivals of the Mu family in both court and personal matters. The Wen family is plagued by a generational curse where each talented male heir dies young. The matriarch, Madam Wang, believes the curse can be broken when a mysterious bell carried by the youngest son, Wen Jing, rings. Earlier that day, Wen Jing fainted after his bell rang upon encountering the Mu Rong carriage. The family investigates and identifies Mu Rong Shu as the likely person responsible for breaking the curse.

Convinced that Mu Rong Shu is the key to their salvation, the Wen family decides to host a flower-viewing banquet to facilitate a meeting between Wen Jing and the fifth miss. Madam Wang visits the Empress, who is Rong Qing’s sister, to borrow rare peonies for the event. The invitations are sent out, causing confusion among the Mu family members, particularly Mu Si, who has a long-standing rivalry with Wen Ye. Despite the tension, the Old Madam insists that Mu Rong Shu attend the banquet as part of her social debut. Preparations are made for her to wear new, elegant clothing, and the family hopes the event will proceed without conflict between the two feuding branches.

The story establishes a dual conflict: Mu Rong Shu’s desire for a peaceful, comfortable life versus the growing political and familial entanglements that threaten to disrupt it. Her medical expertise draws her into the affairs of both the Mu and Wen families, while her hidden modern knowledge sets her apart from the people around her. The Wen family’s desperation to break their curse places Mu Rong Shu at the center of a supernatural mystery, while the Mu family’s doting nature creates a protective but potentially restrictive environment. As the banquet approaches, the intersection of these two powerful families sets the stage for future developments, with Mu Rong Shu navigating her new role as both a cherished daughter and a potential savior with a secret that could change the fate of the capital’s elite.
