The legitimate daughter of a military family is straightforward, adorable, and unintentionally flirtatious.
The crown prince’s grandson is worldly, clever, and pure-hearted, with impeccable morals.
She said, “I’m promised to someone! Don’t get the wrong idea!”
The royal grandson asked with a smile, “There’s a flower within a hundred paces. Should I go to her?”
She faltered. “Go! …Or should you stay?”
The legitimate daughter is fated to bring misfortune to her family: her mother died when she was born, her father died when she was five, and just as she came of age, her whole family was imprisoned on criminal charges.
The royal grandson has terrible luck: he was sent away as a hostage in childhood, and just after escaping with his life, his father rebelled and fled, dragging him into prison as well.
“Your name sounds auspicious, but your fate is awful.”
“Regretting it?”
“My fate brings disaster to my whole family. I need someone tough enough to keep me in check.”
“You’ve got it backward. Being tough won’t work…”
When bad fortune piles upon bad fortune, things can only turn around.
From then on, they balanced strength with gentleness, avenged old grudges, cleared their family’s name, restored the military house’s former glory, and rebuilt their shattered homeland.
