Marry? I'd Rather Raise a Scheming Young Lord

A story about unrequited love finally being returned, and a woman who never wanted to marry finding the one for her.

Yu Chu is the most brazen and doted-on princess in Dongning, the Eldest Princess of Mingyi. She seems calculating, but is kind at heart, lively, and cheerful.

What's so great about getting married? She only wants to stay beneath her father's wing and remain a willful little princess forever.

One day, after waking from a nightmare, she found that her father had brought a young man to her palace.

Feng Zhao is the least favored heir in the history of Beishuo. From the first time she saw him, she thought he was dark and scheming, and she disliked him intensely.

Later, she took pity on him, and Feng Zhao sought her protection by relying on her power. He never expected that, amid all his careful plotting, he would develop genuine feelings for her.

The first time Feng Zhao proposed to her was after he ascended the throne. She refused. At the time, she was enjoying herself at the Nanfeng Hall...

The second time, he changed tactics and began writing marriage contracts himself, sending one every ten days. She threw them all away...

At the time, all of Dongning was laughing at him. A man constantly rejected by a woman, a ruthless emperor who had endured humiliation and bided his time, and yet not even one young lady would have him. How embarrassing!

But he seemed... to be enjoying it?

No one knew how many years the King of Beishuo had spent alone, or how many times he had proposed.

No matter how many times he proposed, the Eldest Princess was always cheerful, always happy, and always single.

Early on: a timid heir x a spoiled, independent princess

Later on: an obsessive emperor x the independent Yu Chu

A happy ending for Zhao and Chu, together for life
