After I Was Ordered to Marry a Prince of the Fief

The master strategist princess vs. the undefeated female warlord

1

The Great Yu's most beloved legitimate eldest princess has two secrets:

First, she wants to avenge her mother.

Second, she wants to become emperor.

To achieve her goals, she exhausts herself plotting for years, even arranging for the emperor to approve her marriage to the dying Prince of Jingbei.

Using the imperial edict as her pretext, the princess travels north to inspect the frontier on the emperor's behalf, accompanied by Huan Xu, the Prince of Jingbei's younger sister, to Yunzhou.

But she never imagined that the Prince of Jingbei she met upon arriving in Yunzhou would be the very person who had traveled alongside her all this way:

Huan Xu trapped her in a room and pinned her against the wall, her eyes blazing with fury as she said through clenched teeth, "I told you that you would regret this!"

After her initial shock, Xuan Jingyu quickly regained her composure. She lifted Huan Xu's chin and murmured, "Then all the more reason I won't regret it."

Princess of Changning, Huan Xu took up her spear and rode into battle at thirteen, leading a legendary army of women across the northern frontier.

In the hearts of Yunzhou's people, she is the god of war who protects them.

In the eyes of the court officials, she is an arrogant, violent madwoman and killer.

But Huan Xu thinks Xuan Jingyu is the real madwoman. She will use anything to achieve her ends, even herself.

They embrace and kiss, yet never stop doubting each other's true feelings.

Huan Xu likes to embrace Xuan Jingyu from behind, so she doesn't have to let her see the affection welling in her eyes.

She asks, "Your Highness, have I done well?"

Standing on the beacon tower and gazing across the sands of the northern desert, Huan Xu hears Xuan Jingyu's ambition and desire through the howling wind.

"I want to unite all under heaven and usher in an age of lasting prosperity. I want to build a golden age where women can hold office at court, become kings, and serve as chancellors."
