You Look Down on Me for Being a Merchant? I’ll Bring a Million Silver Coins to Marry the Prince Regent

Xie Linyuan once knelt in my family’s ancestral hall and swore he would never betray me.

I believed him, using everything I owned to help him rise through the ranks.

But once he had achieved fame and success, all he gave me was an obscure place in the inner courtyard and the words, “How could a merchant’s daughter be fit to be my wife?”

I watched with my own eyes as he cuddled with his new love in a carriage, and heard his mother publicly insult me as a “nagging housekeeper.”

When he grabbed me by the throat to warn me to “behave,” just to please his new love, I finally gave up on him.

I handed him a divorce agreement, but he thought I was still just playing hard to get.

Only after I disappeared did he realize that his glittering, prosperous world was collapsing piece by piece along with my departure.

My husband, the regent of the dynasty, slipped an arm around my waist and chuckled:

“General Xie, do you think you’re allowed to look at my princess consort?”
