Madam, the Young Marshal Has Run Off Again

In the bustling Republican-era city of Yancheng, Yang Lingyun, the young marshal of the military governor's residence, is a battle-hardened commander who commands fear across the land. He is devastatingly handsome and immensely powerful, making him the man every heiress in Yancheng wants to marry. Yet he refuses to take a wife or concubine. Rumor has it that he has no interest in women. Then the eldest daughter of the Liu family returns home after completing her studies abroad. The very next day, the young marshal comes to her home in person and declares that he wants to marry her. She had planned to refuse, but remembering her background and how much she needed someone to rely on, she boldly agrees. On the second day of their marriage, she struggles to straighten her aching back and curses under her breath, “All this just because you caught a glimpse of me that one time? You wore me out so badly. I'll beat you until you beg for mercy.”
