A marriage decree from the late emperor betrothed Mu Shuyan, daughter of a military family, to the most cowardly and incompetent Ninth Prince of the current dynasty! Everyone in the realm mocked them: an ugly bride paired with a weak groom, a perfect match! Mu Shu was furious. Why should she spend the rest of her life married to a man she could beat in a fight? Hmph!
A servant held up a tuft of dog fur. “Your Highness, the Princess Consort wants to sever ties with you by cutting her hair. Please grant her a divorce decree.”
“Take it to the late emperor and ask if he agrees.”
“Your Highness, the Princess Consort wants to visit a brothel. That counts as one of the seven grounds for divorce. Please grant her a divorce decree.”
“Once the late emperor agrees, I’ll grant her wish!”
The late emperor, the late emperor. He’s been dead for eight hundred years! If you’ve got the guts, make him crawl out of his grave!
Everyone in the imperial city watched the jokes pouring out of the Ninth Prince’s residence day after day. Who could have guessed that the ugly woman possessed breathtaking beauty, while the weak man had been playing the fool to hide his true strength, only to swallow the whole realm in the end? It was enough to blind everyone in the world… Damn it, this isn’t the story we wanted to see!!
Very beautiful, highly recommended!!!
