The Whole Capital Is Waiting for Me to Get Married

In her previous life, Qin Huansha was married off in place of her legitimate older sister. She married the wrong man, and her husband despised her as a substitute. Her mother-in-law tormented her, and even the concubines ganged up on her. Qin Huansha died full of resentment.

Reborn, she finds herself back at the age when marriage prospects are being discussed. Qin Huansha flees her arranged marriage in the middle of the night, earning the scorn of the noble young ladies of the capital. For a time, her reputation is ruined.

But before long, the scumbag's true face is exposed, and the young ladies change their tune. They all agree that Miss Qin was right to run away, restoring her reputation and allowing her to return to the capital.

Unwilling to keep a troublemaker at home, the Qin family promptly arranges another marriage for her. Seeing that she's about to fall into the clutches of yet another scumbag, Qin Huansha simply runs away again.

Once again, the facts prove her right. Her two broken engagements cause a sensation in the capital's marriage market. The noble young ladies all hold back, waiting to see whom Miss Qin marries, so they can find out which man isn't a scumbag!

Before long, young masters from every family in the capital start flocking to the Qin residence to have their prospects assessed. Qin Huansha makes perfect use of her reborn golden finger, giving fair assessments of who is worth marrying and who should be kept waiting. She brings many couples together, and her matchmaking career flourishes.

That is, until the renowned general guarding the border comes to see her, also asking about his marriage prospects.

Shen Minghuai: "Please assess me, Miss Qin. Am I the right man for you?"

The man sits there with a chilling, fearsome air. Under the table, Qin Huansha's legs are trembling. She hesitates. The question isn't whether he's a scumbag. He has no feelings at all, and he's going to rebel in the future! Once he ascends the throne, will she be in danger now or later?

After a long silence, General Shen gives a cold snort. "Are you going to marry me or not? Hmm?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Qin Huansha shoves the table so hard she's nearly sent it flying into his face.

The man who has successfully proposed smiles as if nothing could ruffle him, rubbing his nose as he places a nine-dragon jade pendant in Qin Huansha's hand. "Keep it safe. It's a token of our love."

"???" Weren't you supposed to have no feelings? What token? Qin Huansha clutches the jade pendant, its nine dragons coiled around it, like a hot potato. This damn thing is a royal token!

In his youth, Shen Minghuai was stranded far from home and once received the kindness of a little girl. He swore to repay her for the rest of his life.

But in his previous life, he failed to protect her. He fought through bloodshed and forced open the city gates, yet still arrived too late. In the end, his beloved died in his arms.

Given another chance, he decides to act first and ask questions later. He can worry about ruling the realm another time. He'll feel at ease only once he's brought his beloved home.

[I don't like this world, but I still want another chance to build a sky just for you.]
