Jiaoyi was the royal family's precious jewel, adored by everyone. At seventeen, the thing that troubled her most was getting married.
She cared about looks, and there wasn't a single man in all of the capital who could measure up to her standards.
When the new examination results were posted, Jiaoyi followed the crowd and went to catch a husband from among the successful candidates.
From her vantage point in the Huichun Pavilion, she spotted a handsome young man with a face like jade.
He was like a gentle breeze and bright moon, an unparalleled beauty.
Jiaoyi thought that even if he were a bookish dullard, she'd still take him. So before he could leave the alley, she had her people seize him.
The young man was more than willing to cooperate. The two hurriedly exchanged their marriage documents using their birth details.
But later, Jiaoyi discovered that the man she'd caught didn't seem to be a bookish dullard at all. He was a complete fool...
Xiao Yan was the leader of the most powerful gang in the martial world. He had come to the capital to take the imperial examinations, but his real purpose was to investigate a mysterious case from the imperial palace years ago. On the day the results were posted, he deliberately dressed up, hoping that some noble family would catch him and become his backer.
In the crowd, he spotted a lovely young woman. She looked like the easiest to fool, and surely came from a respectable family.
So he deliberately walked into a quiet alley to be caught by her, and exchanged marriage documents with that silly girl.
As the silly girl beamed with delight, Xiao Yan felt a trace of guilt and thought he would treat her well in the future.
Only when the imperial decree arrived at his residence did he realize just how powerful a "backer" he had found.
On the day Princess Jiaoyi married, the whole realm celebrated, while the martial world descended into chaos.
Who could explain why their leader had gone to the capital just once and come back as a princess's consort, having sold himself for his looks?
With the emperor now their leader's father-in-law, were they still supposed to investigate the imperial mystery?
