Historical romance + marriage before love + political intrigue + chasing his wife
At the funeral hall, she accepts an imperial decree and marries her enemy.
Her father and brothers died on the battlefield. Shen Jianwei waits for justice, but receives only an order granting her in marriage. Her husband is none other than Gu Jiuyi, the powerful prime minister, and the prime suspect in the deaths of her loved ones.
On their wedding night, she holds a dagger to his throat.
She probes him at every turn in the open, while he protects her at every turn in secret. Then Shen Jianwei discovers that this cold-blooded powerbroker is the destitute young man she casually saved ten years ago. And the other blood feud he has devoted himself to investigating turns out to have the same roots as the injustice done to the Shen family...
When the truth is cruelly revealed, her heart turns to ash, and she hands him a divorce agreement.
Gu Jiuyi is so overcome with agitation that he spits out a mouthful of blood. “Weiwei, will you marry me one more time?”
