Shen Peitong was born into a merchant family in the Great Jing Dynasty. She traveled across the lands with her father and brothers, commanding a vast fortune and living a carefree life.

But one day, her old father came home with an imperial decree. "My child! I've arranged a wonderful marriage for you. Why not go back to the Great Jing capital and have some fun?"

Shen Peitong raised her pretty brows. "No way. That place values scholars over warriors and officials over merchants. Merchants are lowly, and there are rules everywhere. What's fun about it?"

Her old father bent down before his daughter. "Go on! Have all the fun you want. Our family has twelve golden decrees, and if we don't use them soon, they'll rust. Rusting can lead to trouble."

Shen Peitong smiled like a peony in full bloom. "Really? I can do whatever I want?"

Her father blinked. "Once those twelve decrees are used up, they're gone."

Shen Peitong took the imperial decree. "Deal!"

Wei Xiaoxing was the most dashing young man in the whole capital. He came from a respectable family, was handsome, and could live comfortably for generations on his family's inheritance alone.

Then an imperial decree struck like a bolt of thunder: he was to marry a merchant's daughter, and not even one with a permanent address. "I'm not marrying her. Absolutely not! Don't I have any pride?"

But his father had already finalized the wedding details in a rush, riding five hundred li to get it done.

Wei Xiaoxing was on the verge of tears. With a beauty in his arms, in front of all the capital's noblemen, he declared, "Some lowly merchant girl? This heir has no interest in her."

The whole capital of Shangjing was waiting to see the spectacle of this ridiculous match. Even the marquis's residence had prepared a substitute bride.

But what was with nine bridal sedan chairs arriving at the door? Good heavens, it was a whole parade of monsters!

In the end, Wei Xiaoxing sat there miserably, clutching his quilt. What kind of merchant girl was this? She wasn't at all what he'd expected. She thought he was dirty.

But he was obviously very clean!
