[Love at first sight + Pure-hearted general + Ice queen + Legitimate daughter]
Shen Ruyan was the youngest and most handsome general in Yongzhou. He was rarely seen, showed no interest in women, and was often rumored to prefer men.
Jiang Jixue, the eldest legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's household, was so beautiful that people forgot the mundane world when they saw her, yet no one dared to treat her with disrespect. Skilled in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, she was the model of an aristocratic young lady: cool, proper, and observant of convention. Everyone in the capital knew of her.
Everyone assumed Jiang Jixue would marry Ying Qiyue, the second young master of the foremost aristocratic Ying family. Their engagement was practically a done deal.
But then came the words: “This humble general seeks neither high office nor wealth. I only wish to marry Jiang Jixue, the eldest legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's household.” General Shen had fought countless battles and killed countless enemies to earn his military honors, all so he could ask for her hand.
Even more astonishing, the cool and detached Miss Jiang actually accepted his proposal.
After their marriage, they shocked everyone even more. Young General Shen would have plucked the moon from the sky for his wife.
“My lady, the scenery is lovely today, just as charming as you are.”
“My lady, if I die in battle, will you leave me at once?”
Jiang Jixue smiled softly. “Then I shall remain faithful to my husband for all eternity.”
