On the day Jiang Wanyi married into the Marquis’s household, Pei Jing, the Marquis of Yongchang, went off to war.
Born to an ordinary family, she kept her head down in the marquis’s household and managed everything with care, asking only to stay safe.
Two years later, the young marquis returned after quelling unrest at the border. Jiang Wanyi thought her hard days were over, never imagining that a nightmare was just beginning.
The young marquis who had once sworn he loved only her, and gone to great lengths to bring her home, had returned from the battlefield with a new love carrying his child. He even petitioned the emperor to make her his co-wife.
True love exists in this world, but it can change in an instant. With her last source of comfort gone, Jiang Wanyi only wanted to keep her head down and live in peace. But things did not go as she wished.
When his new love suffered a miscarriage scare, he blamed her. When she caught a chill, he blamed her. When she nearly died in childbirth, he still blamed her...
At last, Jiang Wanyi couldn’t take it anymore. “Let’s divorce. I’ll make room for your new love.”
She thought he would hurry to send her away with divorce papers, but the brave and calculating young marquis lost his composure.
“Leave? Not a chance. In life, you’re mine; in death, you’ll be my ghost.”
