Synopsis

Tang Zhaoning found a strange man on the mountain and married him.

The happy couple lived in perfect harmony, heading out early and returning late as they worked the fields.

Later, she followed her husband into the city and only then discovered that the strange man was actually a prince of the realm!

She cried as she berated him.

“You shameless man! You already have three wives and four concubines, yet you still married me. I’ll tear your head off!”

The prince wiped away her tears. “Where would I get three wives and four concubines? Go inside and look. If you find any, you can come back and tear my head off.”

Afterward.

Tang Zhaoning discovered that her good-for-nothing husband didn’t have three wives and four concubines, and didn’t look down on her either.

He even asked the emperor to grant them a marriage, and the young couple continued to live in perfect harmony.

Her husband treated her so well that she grew bold enough to incur a whole pile of romantic debts.

3. The male lead’s version:

Xie Zhaoyu had loved a woman devotedly for years, but she fell in love at first sight with his imperial elder brother. With the woman about to become his sister-in-law, Xie Zhaoyu couldn’t sit still.

He waited for an opportunity, and when the woman lost her memory by accident, he hid her in a small village.

Three years later, he went to the village to bring her back to the city and married her openly.

Content warnings:

1. The male lead has no sexual experience. The heroine’s first time is with the male lead, but later she develops a romantic relationship with a second male lead and sleeps with him.

2. Both male leads are physically and emotionally faithful. The heroine and male lead have a happy ending.

3. The male lead is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, and at heart he’s a lovesick simp.

4. Amnesia trope. The heroine regains her memories later.

5. Male lead fans, read with caution.

[PS: The content warning has been edited. It originally said both the male and female leads were virgins. The author misunderstood what that meant, thinking it meant both had to be virgins the first time they were together. The warning has now been corrected. My apologies!]

[The content warnings will continue to be updated based on readers’ needs.]

Please add my next book, [Who Taught You to Tame Your Husband Like That?!], to your reading list!

Summary:

Because of an imbalance in the family’s power, Yu Ziyu, the delicate young daughter of the Yu family, has no choice but to marry Li Jiyan, a young general famous for his bravery in battle.

Yu Ziyu is unhappy about it.

She’s heard that Li Jiyan is cold, has no sense of romance, and only knows how to wield a spear. She doesn’t want to marry someone so boring.

On the eve of her wedding, she happens to overhear several elderly maids in the household discussing how to tame a husband.

Yu Ziyu is a little crazy, and the moment she hears them, she gets it!

She goes home and works out her own way to tame a husband.

A husband’s three principles: sex, heart, and body. She’ll take care of them all!

From then on, she gets herself a new toy.

Li Jiyan obeys her every word, bows his head in submission, and lets her hit and scold him as she pleases.

Yu Ziyu thinks she’s simply mastered the art of taming a husband, and basks in self-satisfaction.

Later, there’s a coup at court.

She and Li Jiyan part ways.

She starts a new romance with the immensely powerful Third Prince.

But when she brings out her [Art of Taming a Husband] again,

the Third Prince’s handsome face turns livid. “Who taught you to tame your husband like that?!”

Yu Ziyu bursts into tears.

Her voice trembling, she says, “That’s how I kept Li Jiyan in line. Why can’t you listen to me like he did...?”

Only then does she understand.

The only one who could let her have her way with him without limit was that unsmiling fool, Li Jiyan.

Theme: Grow toward the light.
