[Male Rivalry] [Mary Sue] [Coercive Romance] [Love Polygon]
Yu Wanyin was born into the Ningyuan Marquis household, but her birth mother died young, and neither her father nor her brothers cared for her. Over time, she grew sharp-tongued and mean, earning the dislike of those around her.
By contrast, her half-sister was sweet and adorable, doted on by their father and brothers. She made Yu Wanyin seem utterly worthless.
Everyone wanted to give the best things to her little sister. Even Yu Wanyin's betrothal to the sixth prince was considered a poor match for her, and everyone thought she should give it to her sister.
Sure enough, before long, the sixth prince came to the Ningyuan Marquis household with thorny branches on his back to ask to break off the engagement. Defying public opinion, he knelt before her and apologized, saying he wanted to marry her sister and begging Yu Wanyin to let him.
Yu Wanyin said just one word.
"Get lost."
**
The noble circles caught wind of the drama and waited to see Yu Wanyin make a fool of herself. But that very day, the fourth prince, Xiao Yanyi, who had always been at odds with her, beat the sixth prince to a pulp and knelt before the emperor. "Since Sixth Brother doesn't cherish A Ying, I'll marry her."
News spread from the palace that two princes had fallen out over a woman, and things had turned ugly.
The nobles of the capital were shocked.
"That unremarkable eldest Yu daughter... Could she actually be the kind of beauty who brings ruin to a kingdom?"
**
To win Yu Wanyin's hand, Xiao Yanyi did everything he could to please his father. At last, his devotion paid off, and the emperor agreed, issuing another imperial decree of marriage.
On the eve of the wedding, Yu Wanyin felt unwell at a palace family banquet and left in a fluster. She didn't expect someone to be waiting in the side hall.
The man wore a four-clawed python robe, utterly unlike the refined gentleman he seemed in public. He lounged casually in the seat of honor, rolling a sweet-pea blossom petal between his fingers. In a tone that was half teasing and half threatening, he called her by name:
"A Ying."
Frightened pale, she dropped to her knees, at a loss, and called out softly:
"Crown Prince Brother..."
He laughed and asked:
"Carrying my child, where do you think you're going to marry?"
