Zhou Yufu went from a noble young lady to the daughter of a convicted official. Her husband's family threw her out with a divorce agreement.
The rakish young men who had coveted her beauty for years were all rubbing their hands together, ready to take her by force.
But the Third Prince got to her first, bringing Zhou Yufu back to his residence.
The Third Prince was cruel and cold, and his family was a sworn enemy of the Zhou family. Everyone thought Zhou Yufu had no chance of surviving in his hands.
Who knew she would transform into a female official in the Third Prince's household?
Lady Zhou was charming and skilled at managing people, and even the Empress Dowager praised her to the skies. Zhou Yufu, once secretly looked down on by others, became a sought-after figure again.
After that, the people of the capital often saw a crowd of young gentlemen following her.
- The son of a wealthy merchant offered ten thousand gold to marry her.
- Xu Mingye, the man every young woman in the capital wanted to marry, gently helped her adjust her hairpin.
Even Zhou Yufu's former husband came to the Third Prince, hoping to rekindle their marriage.
The Third Prince pulled the woman behind him into his arms and said with a teasing smile, "She's aiming for a lofty match. None of you are good enough for her."
Zhou Yufu simply lowered her eyes and stayed silent, letting him make his reckless remarks for the time being.

Later, the Third Prince ascended the throne and became the new emperor. He personally handed the imperial phoenix seal to Zhou Yufu, showing the sincerity of his proposal.
But Zhou Yufu held the heavy seal and calmly said, "I will surely find Your Majesty a suitable match."
The Third Prince: ...

PS:
1. The heroine is not a virgin, but the hero is. The heroine has been married before. Please don't read if that bothers you.
2. Human nature is complex. There are both male and female villains, as the plot requires.

[New Book Preview] The Marquis's Daily Pursuit of His Wife
The Jiang family were minor merchants. They used a past favor to pressure the family, flaunting a token from the old Marquis of Weiyuan and loudly proclaiming that the current Marquis of Weiyuan must marry their daughter, Jiang Hanyin.
The young and promising Marquis of Weiyuan, Song Mingyue, was not interested in women. It was rumored that he already loved someone. So the elders of the marquis's household proposed a compromise: they would take Jiang Hanyin as their adopted daughter and promised to find her a good husband.
From then on, Jiang Hanyin stayed on as the fourth young lady of the Marquis of Weiyuan's household.
To avoid giving people the wrong idea, she deliberately kept her distance from her adopted brother and tried not to be alone with him.
Fortunately, the elders of the marquis's household were considerate and treated her as their own. They sincerely sought a good match for her.
Later, Jiang Hanyin happened to meet a young gentleman. He had bright eyes, handsome features, and a good nature.
When the young man came to propose, the elders of the marquis's household all agreed that it was a good match.
Only her adopted brother coldly set his teacup down with a heavy thud and said, "They aren't a suitable match."
Everyone in the marquis's household exchanged glances, and the marriage proposal was called off.
From then on, Jiang Hanyin assumed her adopted brother despised her and avoided him like a mouse dodging a cat, wishing she could burrow into the ground.
But the vast Marquis of Weiyuan's estate seemed to shrink to a few square feet. No matter how she dodged him, her adopted brother was everywhere.
Jiang Hanyin gritted her teeth and used praying for the old madam as an excuse to stay at a temple for a year or two.
Who could have guessed that the moment she arrived at the Buddhist hall, her adopted brother would corner her inside?
Just as she began to panic, she saw the helpless look on his face. His voice was full of resentment. "When will you finally look at me properly?"
