The Royal Daughter-in-Law

Gu Yuqing's marriage prospects fell through, and her spoiled nature made everyone in Yanjing City wait to see her become a laughingstock, a woman who would never marry.

Xiao Zhanchu, the ninth son of the imperial family, excelled in both letters and arms. He was peerlessly handsome and the dream man of countless young women.

One day, the emperor decreed their marriage. Ten miles of wedding finery, and the two were joined as husband and wife.

Everyone was stunned, and the young ladies of the inner chambers were heartbroken.

They didn't know what had happened beside the moss-covered old well behind the corridor at Tianyun Temple, with sandalwood incense curling through the air and cypress leaves drifting down. The noble Ninth Prince had touched his throat and said, "Do you dislike my voice? I've asked the imperial physician. I'm simply going through voice changes later than most people. Soon, my voice won't sound like this."

Gu Yuqing snapped, "I don't want to marry you anyway. You're younger than me!"

Xiao Zhanchu: "I'm only younger in age. Everything else is bigger."

Her wolf-dog emperor husband: That day, she cleverly made me swear that I would only ever have her. She didn't know that there was never going to be anyone else.

My simultaneously updating novel next door: Remarrying the Neighbor, Old Wang, in the Eighties (originally titled Changing Husbands in the Eighties)

Dongmai's husband was no good in bed, but she didn't know any better and thought it was just how things were. She was pretty content with her life.

The demobilized soldier next door, Shen Ming, married a wife. Before the wedding feast was even over, his new bride was making a fuss about getting a divorce.

Dongmai went over to talk her down, but the new bride said, "He's fierce and mean, barely says a word, and is dirt poor!"

Dongmai spoke from the heart: "Shen Ming earned military honors. He's seen a lot. Once the reforms come, if you run things well, you can build a good life together."

Who knew the woman would snap back, "Then why don't you marry him? If you want him so badly, you marry him. Stop trying to talk me into it!"

Dongmai had no idea the new bride had been reborn from a year in the future. She knew Shen Ming was about to hit it big, and she'd come to her senses: she wanted money, not love.

Dongmai couldn't change her mind. The neighbor got divorced, and Dongmai, who couldn't have children and was resented by her husband's family, got divorced too.

Later, she married Shen Ming, the poor neighbor everyone had looked down on, while the former bride married her wealthy ex-husband.

The two women swapped men but remained neighbors, living their lives just as they had before, constantly running into each other.

Everyone said Dongmai and Shen Ming were a perfect match: one couldn't have children, and the other was dirt poor.

Shen Ming's fortunes soared, and he made a fortune. Dongmai gave birth to two children in quick succession!

The reborn ex-wife was dumbfounded, and the ex-husband, who still had no children, was mortified.
