After Breaking Off Her Engagement, the Metaphysics Master Is Courted by the Deposed Crown Prince

After guarding the border for seven years and searching for her fiancé's remains for just as long, Gu Qing learns not that she will wed in splendid finery, but that her fiancé, the marquis, has already married and had children.

Gu Qing gives a cold laugh, calls off the engagement without hesitation, then turns around and asks the marquis's wife to be her godmother. With an army of a hundred thousand at her command, she becomes the most untouchable living demon in the capital.

But then the emperor recklessly arranges a match for her. Everyone thinks Gu Qing has fallen from grace by taking the deposed crown prince as her husband.

On their wedding day, however, Gu Qing shields the deposed crown prince behind her, her eyes full of disdain. "Who dares lay a hand on my husband?"

Later, when Gu Qing's life hangs by a thread, a vast procession appears in the sky, looking down upon everyone below.

The guards and maids at the rear hurry down and gather before Gu Qing.

The tigers pulling the imperial carriage prostrate themselves, as all the guards and maids bow in unison.

"We pay our respects to the Princess Who Guards the Nation. Welcome home, Princess!"

Their united welcome echoes throughout Longqing City.
