Marrying a Beauty

Blurb: My new novel, The Sweet Chambermaid, is now underway. As the daughter of the Duke of Yu and the Grand Princess, Commandery Princess Gu Mingyue should have been doted on, but instead neither her father nor her mother cares for her. It doesn't matter, though: she has a noble title, money, and a gentle, refined fiancé. Then she is set up, and has no choice but to break off her engagement and become betrothed to a scholar instead. The scholar is stunningly handsome, and Gu Mingyue is delighted by what she sees. People advise her: "Though Young Master Shen is handsome, he has no rank or title." The imperial exam results are announced, and Shen Ting comes top, earning the title of zhuangyuan. People advise her: "So what if he came first? It'll take at least ten or twenty years for him to rise to a high position." A few days later, the emperor announces to the realm that Shen Ting, the top scholar, is his son, who was lost among the common people. Everyone: ... Later, after Gu Mingyue takes her place as empress, she thinks: If she were a character in a story, she would definitely be the heroine. Please add my upcoming novels to your reading list.
