The Princess's Fourth Marriage

[A ruthless, blood-soaked demon in public, a clingy, obedient little loyal dog in private] vs. [A beautiful, softhearted young lady] Zhao Hanqing was the late emperor's most beloved daughter, peerlessly beautiful and the unrivaled belle of the capital. Despite her beauty, she had no luck in love and was married four times. Her first husband fell off his horse and died on the way to their wedding. Her second husband drank himself to death on their wedding night. Her third husband feared her reputation for bringing bad luck to her husbands. He wouldn't even enter the bridal chamber and sent her to a separate estate that very day. Everyone thought Zhao Hanqing must be weeping every day and railing against fate. Instead, she tended flowers, brewed tea, wrote poetry, painted, and enjoyed a leisurely life. Later, the hostage prince of Ning returned to his country, killed his brother, and seized the throne. Before long, an army of one hundred thousand invaded Chen. The first thing the new emperor did after entering the capital was seize Zhao Hanqing and take her to his tent. Everyone said Zhao Hanqing was doomed. When Si Xian had been a hostage in the palace, the Chen imperial family had nearly bullied him to death. He hated them to the bone. In his hands, Zhao Hanqing would surely die without even leaving a bone behind... Of course, no one knew that on that drizzly spring night, Zhao Hanqing had donned the new emperor's dark blue crane cloak and was writing a prayer to Heaven for him in the tent. The new emperor, rumored to be sinister and cruel, had been left waiting for a long time. At last, he came to her side and said, all wronged and pouty, "Sister, I haven't had a proper night's sleep in three months because I was coming back for you." Zhao Hanqing said, "Good boy. Go to sleep first. When I've finished the last few lines, I'll come keep you company." Later, on the day Si Xian received the court officials' congratulations, everyone was stunned to see Zhao Hanqing beside him in a phoenix robe. They thought Si Xian had deliberately made Zhao Hanqing his empress so he could humiliate and torment her, ensuring that the Chen imperial family would never be able to hold their heads high again. But then they saw the fearsome, aloof god of slaughter kneel right there in front of everyone, crouching beneath her skirt to wipe the dust from the pearls on her shoe. Everyone: ??? Theme: Stay positive, optimistic, and keep moving forward
