[Sweet Romance + Mutual Devotion + Favored by Fate]
[Looks-obsessed heroine who wants to break off the engagement VS the seemingly gentle but secretly scheming young emperor forced to take the throne] Their daily routine consists of one sobbing her eyes out, while the other trails behind with a stick, glaring suspiciously at everyone.
Song Ruyi ran away from her wedding, but failed to escape. The poor-looking man she’d married had turned out to be a crybaby beneath that handsome face!
But why does he look so good when he cries?
Scene One:
“My dear wife! That Minister of Revenue says our wedding doesn’t count as government spending, so he won’t pay for it! Sniffle, sniffle!”
Song Ruyi raided the minister’s residence that night. When she got back, she patted the crybaby’s head and comforted him. “If he won’t pay, he won’t pay. We have money, we don’t need to fuss over a little bit!” Then she dragged in a mountain of gold and silver taller than a person, leaving the young emperor stunned…
Scene Two:
“My dear wife, there’s been a murder! They say I can’t keep this vast empire under control! Who’d want to be their guardian beast? Boo-hoo!”
Song Ruyi contacted her grandfather’s old friends and caught the real culprit, who had been on the run. When she came back, she comforted the child again. “Look, does this person seem familiar? You can kill him or punish him however you like!”
The crybaby shook his head like a rattle. “N-no, no, no, no, no, I wouldn’t dare!”
Scene Three:
Several major factions joined forces and advanced to within thirty li of the capital. The young emperor cried as he packed Song Ruyi’s things. “I can stand with Great Qi through thick and thin! But my wife has to live!”
“My dear wife, I’m so sad you won’t leave, but also so happy! Waaah!”
