The Mad Consort Strikes: Young Lord, Take This!

She is Lu Wanxing, Princess of Beili.

First, the emperor wants to send her away as a hostage.

Then, one group after another tries to use her as a pawn.

After that, a whole crowd comes to compete for her hand in marriage.

Dream on.

The stars above laugh at those below. To take a star as a chess piece is sheer folly, and now they even want to take one as a wife!
