[One-on-One Romance] [She Builds Her Career by Day and Holds Her Husband at Night] [A Delicate, Adorable Beauty Who Grows Stronger] [An Arrogant Young General] [Everyday Spoiling] [Half Plot, Half Romance]
In one sentence: In the desert, the Northern Suppressing Prince is overcome by a love curse and unable to resist his feelings. At midnight, he is transported back to his own ghost-marriage bridal chamber. When he opens his eyes, the bride lifting her veil is the sweet, delicate beauty he has long yearned for.
Blurb: On the day her fiance places first in the palace examination, he turns around and marries Shen Mingtang's younger sister. Shen Mingtang, meanwhile, is pushed by her family into a substitute marriage to a memorial tablet.
Her groom, Xiao Chengjin, died on the battlefield long ago. All that remains is a cold memorial tablet.
Everyone laughs at Shen Mingtang for becoming a young widow.
On their wedding night, a handsome man, as bewitching as a ghost, pulls her into his arms and kisses her.
Shen Mingtang assumes she has encountered a ghost, but from then on, every night she sees Xiao Chengjin return, afflicted by the love curse.
When he is trapped in a desperate situation, she uses an ancient jade to send him water, food, and medicine. When she is bullied in the capital, the man teaches her how to stand her ground and command respect.
Gradually, Shen Mingtang uses her status as a princess consort to buy land and open shops by day, while helping her husband deal with the love curse at night. Her life flourishes.
The top scholar who once abandoned her to marry someone else regrets it: "Mingtang, if I had married you back then, would we have..."
Before he can finish, the city gates swing open. Iron hooves thunder as Xiao Chengjin, the Northern Suppressing Prince who was thought to have died in battle, returns to the capital in black armor, leading his army.
The man swings down from his horse and pulls her into his arms. "While I was away from the capital, anyone who bullied my wife can just wait for me."
