Pure romance / sweet and doting / the hero becomes the other man for love / the powerful one submits / stealing a wife / the second male lead pursues his wife to the crematorium My Scumbag Husband Begs Forgiveness Outside, While the Powerful Prince Locks Me in a Waist-Hold Kiss Inside Qiao Qiongzhi had a “deeply devoted” husband, Cheng Yuan, the great general who guarded the north. To marry her, he even knelt in the snow in the depths of winter to beg the emperor for an edict granting their union! Devoted? Unfortunately, it was all a lie! She was merely a stand-in for the woman he truly loved! Look at Cheng Yuan, happily heading off to Yanbei with his true love to enjoy themselves, then turning around and dumping her in the regent’s mansion, where people were eaten alive, as a hostage. The world pitied and mocked her? Qiao Qiongzhi sneered: Everyone, move aside. This madam is about to put on a show! A hostage’s status, an ancestral matriarch’s bearing! A show of power? She slapped them right back! A shabby courtyard? She moved straight into the Moon-Embracing Pavilion! Suffer a grievance? The regent himself stepped in to back her up! Faced with a “hostage” who kept making trouble under the banner of “I’m the general’s darling,” the regent silently indulged her. “The food doesn’t suit your taste? Bring in every famous chef in the capital, one after another. Replace it all!” “She slapped Madam X across the face? Does her hand hurt? Have the servants slap her for her!” Everyone in the prince’s residence: ??? Your Highness, wake up! She’s a hostage! A prisoner! The regent: Who would dare slight the woman I’ve been plotting to claim for so long? Qiao Qiongzhi: These days of fine clothes and food, throwing my weight around, and having the regent come whenever I call... Isn’t this just being treated like royalty in a different place? Until one day, the regent drew the “hostage” into his arms and coaxed her softly: My name carries a lot more weight than your good-for-nothing husband’s. Would you... like to try it?
