My Lady, I Was Wrong

Love doesn’t need vows of eternal devotion, nor does it need to shake the heavens and earth. When a fiery commandery princess meets a general who rose from humble beginnings, a different kind of love quietly begins to grow. She has loved ones who cherish her, and plenty of people to worry about. He has no family or friends, only her, and she is the only one he cares about. Their different beginnings and backgrounds have destined them for a love unlike any other. She’s willful and spoiled, and a master at acting cute and playing innocent. He’s gentle and devoted, and more than willing to indulge her and give way. Some call her wild and sharp-tongued. She just laughs them off, saying she simply does as she pleases. Some call him spineless and henpecked. He ignores them, saying he simply follows his heart. She says, “Bickering makes life fun, and crying your eyes out is just showing your true feelings.” He says, “Laughing and crying come from the heart; quarrels and squabbles come from true love.” Tender affection is love, of course, but teasing and bickering are love too. Come see how this pair of quarrelsome sweethearts will see their own love through to the end! A note from the author, please take note: 1. This story flows along at an unhurried pace, with both sadness and joy, like a slice-of-life farming tale. It’s lighthearted but not a comedy, and it’s neither palace intrigue nor household drama. The plot takes its time to warm up. 2. The heroine has a strong personality but loves to play dumb and outwit people. She’s actually rather scatterbrained, disdains scheming, and is definitely neither all-powerful nor saintly. 3. The first volume is where all the plot twists are concentrated. If you can get through it without finding it jarring, the rest probably won’t shock you either. 4. If you’re wary of plot twists, you can skip the first volume. If anything later doesn’t make sense, go back and read the earlier parts, or leave me a comment to ask. 5. As for my writing, my editor once described it with the word “odd,” so please don’t expect too much from me. 6. This is a story I wrote on a whim, packed with romantic entanglements. Anything from melodrama to outrageous plot twists could happen. Theme:
