A Handbook for Rejecting Marriage

Everyone knows the famed Prince of Yunnan, who guards the border, has a daughter who is brave in battle but hopelessly lustful. She routs the small state of Annam again and again, and is the great general beloved by the people of Yunnan.

To curry favor with her, officials often send handsome men to the prince's residence.

Yin Qingqian, the Princess of Yunnan, is beautiful and wild. She has troops at her command and men by her side, and life is good. Then one day, she suddenly has a dream.

In the dream, she takes in a taciturn, breathtakingly beautiful man and spends every day fussing over him, only to be outmaneuvered by him. In the end, a great fire burns down the Prince of Yunnan's residence, leaving her family destroyed.

Only then does she learn that he is Crown Prince Shen Tingjun, who disappeared on his way to inspect Yunnan.

Yin Qingqian jolts awake from the dream, only to find herself at the summit of Jade Buddha Temple, waiting for the sunrise.

In the faint light, a man rides toward her on horseback. Badly wounded, he falls from his horse and rolls straight to a stop in front of her.

When Yin Qingqian sees his peerlessly refined face, she turns and runs.

But the man grabs her ankle and threatens, "This is a sacred Buddhist temple. If you leave a dying man to his fate, you'll be struck by lightning."

Yin Qingqian: ...

Yin Qingqian decides to play along and keep a close eye on this heartless bastard, so she won't be fooled again.

Who would have thought that the aloof flower from her dream, who barely spoke, would change completely? He glares at the men she'd taken in at the prince's residence, tugs on her sleeve, and says meekly, "Qianqian, send them all away. Isn't having me enough?"

Yin Qingqian: ??? Did you hit your head when you fell?!

The Princess of Yunnan has been quite troubled lately.

The emperor keeps granting marriage decrees. How is she supposed to tell him that his most beloved crown prince has gone stupid after a fall, and that she doesn't want to marry him?

Warnings:

1. Both leads are each other's first. The male lead is reborn, while the female lead dreams; she will gradually recover memories of her past life, which was full of misunderstandings.

2. The male lead really is a bastard. When he is reborn, he initially wants to seize military power, but later pursues his wife through hell and high water.

3. In this life, the leads pretend to deceive each other. The male lead falls first.

The Princess of Yunnan, who talks nonsense all day trying to refuse marriage and has MAX combat strength, VS the crown prince, who will do anything to get married and is ruthless but taciturn
