   The first book features a princess as the female lead and a minister ten years her senior as the male lead. The female lead is forced into a political marriage, and the male lead tries everything to stop her. The second book features a princess as the female lead and a tutor as the male lead; it's a classic "wife-chasing-after-the-cremation" story, very tear-jerking (mainly because it's so heart-wrenching for the male lead). The third book features a princess as the female lead and a border general as the male lead; it's a marriage of convenience that blossoms into love (just like the title suggests, the female lead is very proud and aloof, but adorably so).
