After the Xiao family broke off the engagement, Jiang Zhi, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Anping, became the laughingstock of the entire capital.
Furious and humiliated, Jiang Zhi was willing to ruin her own reputation to force Xiao Yu, the Prince of Zhennan, to marry her. But Xiao Yu did not love her, and in their three years of marriage, he never showed her a moment of tenderness.
Later, Xiao Yu died on the battlefield. Jiang Zhi remained a widow for the rest of her life, living until the age of sixty before passing away peacefully.
Reborn, Jiang Zhi came to her senses.
Why stay a widow?
What's not to love about men?
Jiang Zhi resolved to stop pining for someone who did not love her. She would decisively divorce Xiao Yu, then find a good man and marry him.
Who could have guessed that the bastard who was supposed to die on the battlefield would come back alive?

The male lead's perspective:
Xiao Yu, Prince of Zhennan, was as handsome as an elegant jade tree, with an extraordinary bearing.
The greatest stain on his life was being tricked into marrying a woman he did not love.
Until one day, he dreamed of his past life. He dreamed that the woman he had never once deigned to look at had remained a widow for the rest of her life after his death.
He thought Jiang Zhi must truly like him. If she would just behave herself, perhaps he could bring himself to treat her a little better.
Only later did Xiao Yu realize that the little widow who had spent her whole life mourning him was always trying to dump him!
Though divorced and with her reputation in tatters, Jiang Zhi's striking beauty made her the object of every eligible man's pursuit in the capital.
First came the heir of the Marquis of Zhongyong, followed by the young marquis of the Marquis of Changping.
For the first time, the cool and aloof Xiao Yu tasted regret.
Proud as he was, he never imagined that one day he would stand outside the marquis's residence, begging Jiang Zhi to be his wife, regardless of what the world thought.

Reader's Guide:
1. One-on-one romance, happy ending.
2. The heroine is clear-minded from the start and knows what she wants. The male lead suffers throughout the story.
3. Three men compete for one woman, with plenty of romantic rivalry and drama.
4. There may be some authorial liberties and logical flaws. This is a completely fictional setting, so readers who value historical accuracy, please stay away.
Note: There are countless novels on Jinjiang. If you don't like this one, just read something else. Please don't leave a bad review; the author is sensitive. Thank you.
Coming Soon
The Heir Regrets His Choice
Synopsis:
As the most beloved little princess of Great Xia, Ruan Qingdai has loved Pei Yuan, heir to the Marquis of Yongning, for ten years. She dreams of marrying him.
The palace attendants often see her trailing after Pei Yuan, ignoring the disgust in his eyes as she asks again and again, "Pei Yuan, do you like me? Pei Yuan, when I come of age, will you be my prince consort?"
She waited and waited!
She waited to grow up, waited for the imperial decree arranging their marriage, and finally received Pei Yuan's rejection: "Princess, we are not suited for each other."
Not suited?
Looking at the man's hard stance and disgusted expression, the proud little princess seemed to understand something at last.
She thought, perhaps they really weren't suited for each other!
*
Pei Yuan, heir to the Marquis of Yongning, had one great ambition in life: to enter the Grand Secretariat and rise among the Nine Ministers.
In his eyes, the little princess who was so favored by the emperor was unruly and willful, nothing but a spoiled, useless ornament. So when she confessed her love, Pei Yuan, who had no wish to marry a princess, rejected her without hesitation, saying, "Princess, we are not suited for each other."
At the time, Pei Yuan could never have dreamed how dearly he would pay for those words in the future.
*
It was pouring rain the day Ruan Qingdai chose her prince consort.
Someone clutched the hem of her robe. The usually haughty, proud man stood drenched in the rain, his handsome face deathly pale as he pleaded through choked sobs, "Choose me, all right, Ruan Ruan? Don't choose him!"
Ruan Qingdai calmly refused him. "Grand Secretary, we are not suited for each other."
His bloodshot eyes glistened with faint tears. His bowed head no longer held any of its former pride. "We are suited!"
Ruan Ruan, we are suited!
-Pei Yuan never dreamed that one day he would become less than human, all for the sake of a woman.-
Theme: May you find one heart, and never part until your hair turns white
