[Marriage Before Love] [Two Strong Leads, Both Devoted and Untainted] [Sweet Romance]
In the Great Yin dynasty, powerful families maintained their ties through marriage alliances. Jiang Zhiyi, the legitimate daughter of the General's household, had been neglected since childhood, and after her mother died, her stepmother treated her even more coldly.
Jiang Zhiyi uncovered the truth behind her mother's death and set up her half-sister to be caught secretly engaged to someone. She was willing to put herself in danger to seek justice for her mother.
To preserve the family's prestige, her father forced Jiang Zhiyi to take another bride's place and marry Pei Yanzhi, heir to the Duke of Dingguo's family and the Fifth Prince.
This rushed alliance began as a farcical case of a substitute bride, but unexpectedly became the start of a sweet marriage.
On the surface, Pei Yanzhi was a carefree young nobleman. In secret, he ran the intelligence agency Listening Snow Tower, and his reputation as a wastrel was entirely an act.
As they grew closer, their feelings quietly deepened, little by little.
When Jiang Zhiyi's true identity was revealed and she faced danger, Pei Yanzhi stepped in front of her and declared to the entire capital, “No one else gets to pass judgment on my princess.”
