The God of War Was Lured Away by Candied Hawthorn? The Capital Is in Stitches

“Bai Ruoxue, a disgraced commandery princess, thinks she’s worthy of marrying into the Chancellor’s family?” The chancellor’s son flings a letter of repudiation at her, spittle flying. She lifts the letter between her fingertips and smiles, her expression as sly as a peach blossom. “Oh? That ‘Western Regions miracle oil’ your family just bought... Could it be lard mixed with flower petals that I sold yesterday?” The whole crowd falls silent. She flashes her account book. “The Grand Tutor’s wife’s ‘pearl powder of eternal youth’ is glutinous rice flour mixed with flowers. Those ‘bursting sugar balls’ the children are clamoring for are made by filling sugar shells with sour plum drink. Half the capital is handing its money to me~” Just then, a low chuckle comes from beside the horse. The cold-faced God of War, Nangong Ling, stands with his ink-black robes fluttering, amusement in his eyes. “My military camp could use a quartermaster who knows a few tricks.” She raises an eyebrow. “Will the pay be enough for ten carts of candied hawthorns?” The onlookers gape. This commandery princess dares to haggle with the Grim Reaper? Three days later... The Chancellor’s household begs her to withdraw its bad review of the “lard miracle oil,” while the Grand Tutor’s wife offers gold for the secret recipe. And the blood-soaked God of War is clumsily holding an umbrella for her, quietly asking, “If today’s earnings are enough for ten carts of candied hawthorns, will you take me as your husband?” A fallen commandery princess turns the tables with her wild ideas, treating the capital like a playground and outtalking everyone in sight, while managing to win over the cold-faced God of War! No political scheming, just wildly entertaining jokes where “you’re on the first floor, while I’m up in the stratosphere.” Watch her go from being despised by everyone to adored by everyone, with one satisfying moment after another, until she becomes the capital’s wildest girl!
