After the Divorce, She Is Betrothed to the God of War

(Traditional historical romance, palace and household intrigue + regretful husband pursues his wife)

Three years ago, the Marquis of Anyuan’s household braved the ridicule of the capital’s high society to marry a merchant’s daughter as its principal wife.

Three years later, the marquis’s wife asked for a divorce, shocking the entire capital.

Some said she was ungrateful. A merchant’s daughter like her should have considered it a great honor to marry into the marquis’s household, something countless women of lower status could only dream of. How dare she ask for a divorce?

Others said that after a few years as the marquis’s wife, she had forgotten her humble origins and dared to make demands of the household. She was simply asking for trouble.

But only Lin Wanqing herself knew the truth:

Whatever people said about her, it couldn’t change the fact that the Marquis of Anyuan was respectable on the outside but rotten within.

In the three years she was married into his household, her family had nearly been bled dry, all to help the marquis’s household flourish.

Even after her family had given almost everything to support the household, she was still neglected by her handsome and cold husband for three years.

As soon as the household began to improve, her mother-in-law blamed her for failing to produce an heir and told her to help her husband take a concubine.

It turned out that taking a concubine was merely her husband’s underhanded way of divorcing her openly so he could bring the woman he loved into the household.

Lin Wanqing played dumb and went along with her mother-in-law in everything, while secretly discussing a divorce strategy with her family.

When they learned of Shuai Jisheng’s sinister intentions, her family immediately began withdrawing the money they had invested in the marquis’s businesses. Lin Wanqing secured her divorce, and before leaving, she even made sure the marquis’s concubines would fight each other to the death.

Shuai Jisheng thought that as a divorced woman with such a terrible reputation, Lin Wanqing’s future would be bleak.

But when they met again, she had become a princess consort, cherished every day by Prince Jing, a man far beyond the marquis’s reach.
