Synopsis

In the war-torn Kingdom of Chu Yuan, constant battles with the Kingdoms of Xijing and Nanyue had weakened the nation and decimated its population.

In the sixteenth year of the Chu Yuan era, Emperor Chu Yuanming issued a harsh decree to boost the population: men had to marry by seventeen and women by sixteen. Anyone who failed to do so would be imprisoned for three years, then exiled to a frigid wasteland. Once their sentence was served, the authorities would force them to marry.

Amid this atmosphere of fear and uncertainty, merchant’s daughter Qiao An’an, who had transmigrated into a book, had just turned sixteen.

Her father, Qiao Zhencheng, was frantic to find her a husband. After much deliberation, he came up with the unorthodox idea of buying her one for a hefty sum.

Qiao An’an only cared about making money, and thought it was a great idea, so she readily agreed.

With five hundred thousand taels of silver in hand, Qiao Zhencheng went to the palace to buy a son-in-law, setting his sights on the Seventh Prince.

At the time, Emperor Chu Yuanming was fretting over the empty treasury. Seeing how “generous” the Qiao family was, he waved his hand and sold them the Second Prince, Chu Haojue, a brave warrior who was so poor he had nothing to his name.

When Qiao Zhencheng heard this, he thought it was an incredible bargain and immediately added another hundred thousand taels.

Unfortunately, he hadn’t brought enough money, so he had to send a servant home to fetch more.

When Qiao An’an learned that her father had gone to the palace without enough money, she mistakenly thought he was going to help ease the burden on the national treasury. Without a second thought, she produced another four hundred thousand taels.

And so, the Qiao family splashed out a million taels and successfully “brought a prince home,” while the emperor “happily sold off a prince.” Both sides were delighted.

But when Qiao An’an met her princely husband for the first time, she was instantly dumbfounded: How could a prince be this poor?

What hilarious, dramatic, and turbulent events will unfold after this absurd and theatrical union?

Very pretty. I like this kind of funny and light-hearted novel. Come on, the author is great

There are a few typos, but otherwise it's pretty good. The content is very good. Come on👏 There were a lot of typos at first, but later the villains were all family members! I can't understand that I didn't learn martial arts when I was a child, and I still think that I'm a fool! Marry as soon as you say, you can get a bomb, you can't negotiate terms well, betrayal is seen, change easily... Travel once, you can't instinctively protect your family, you can't protect yourself, you can't take love and hate lightly, why time travel, suicide can't work, in ancient times, a few cars of silver can buy a life, but add drama to yourself, go to other counties and cities, can you be more reliable? Will there be misunderstandings and reconciliation in the future? Will the child have a difficult delivery and the string of beads will come back again... Can the author write a good introduction next time he writes a book?
