Synopsis

[Marriage First, Love Later; unruly girl × husband-like man; age gap of eight years] Everyone in Bianjing knew that it was better to offend the princess than to cross the young county princess. Zhao Weijun's reputation for mischief had spread throughout Bianjing, and when it came time to find her a match, everyone steered clear. The old prince sighed and shook his head as he sifted through a pile of match proposals, until he came across a portrait. Wait, how had he not thought of him? Yan Liang! The top scholar of his year, whom countless people had tried to recruit as a son-in-law after the palace examinations. Now a court censor, he was upright and came from a respectable family. Best of all, they knew him well, and he'd once considered an arranged betrothal between their children. When Zhao Weijun learned she was to marry that stuffy man, she threatened to cry, make a scene, and hang herself. Yan Liang refused too, saying he was unworthy of such a burden. The first night of marriage, they kept to their own sides. The second night, they bickered. The third night, they came to blows. On the nth night, Yan Liang brought home his drunken wife, intending to give her a stern talking-to. Instead, she brazenly kissed him. “Yan Lanshi! I'm this beautiful. Why aren't you falling for me?” … After that, neither of them slept a wink.
