*Aloof Prince Consort × Sweet, pampered little princess
Yan Qiaoqiao was spoiled and willful her entire life, and rarely did a good deed. If not for her father's indulgence, forcing Cui Zheyu, the top candidate in the imperial examinations, to abandon his career and marry her would have been enough to make everyone condemn her.
Perhaps she had done so much evil that even Heaven had had enough, and sent her to an early grave with a single blow.
But after her soul returned to the heavens, she never expected that Cui Zheyu, who had always treated her coldly and without kindness, would rise to the highest ranks of government, purge the court, and stain his hands with blood, all to avenge her.
Reborn, Yan Qiaoqiao decided to do one good deed: stay far away from Cui Zheyu, who was as noble and untainted as the wind and moon. They would mind their own business and leave each other in peace.
But Lord Cui, the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, was deeply in love with her and refused to be driven away. He even kept pursuing her and saying strange things.
"When will Your Highness consider marrying me?"
Yan Qiaoqiao, furious and embarrassed, snapped, "When I rule the world, I'll make you my imperial consort!"
Cui Zheyu lowered his eyes, his gaze deep and sharp. "I am at Your Highness's disposal. I will see that the princess gets her wish."
Years later, Yan Qiaoqiao became the first Crown Princess in history, then ascended the throne. Cui Zheyu stood behind her, his expression stern, but his eyes, fixed on her, were passionate and full of love.
A short extra:
The Court of Judicial Review was the most coveted place to work in the entire government. Vice Minister Cui Zheyu was talented and highly favored, kind to his subordinates, and always left work on time.
A colleague, curious, asked where he was going. Cui Zheyu's expression stayed calm, but he didn't slow his steps as he headed out of the office. "The princess has summoned me."
Colleague: Even when the emperor summons you, you're not this eager!
