On the day he was defeated in battle, Crown Prince Meng Yanqin was bound hand and foot and presented to Shen Yuxiu, the Prince of the Northern Frontier.
Everyone knew he was a lamb walking into a tiger's den.
Rumor had it that Shen Yuxiu had seized power by killing his father. He was ruthless and terrifying.
To make matters worse, Meng Yanqin was Shen Yuxiu's most hated rival.
The court officials wagered that Meng Yanqin wouldn't last three days in Shen Yuxiu's hands.
But as they waited, they heard no news of Meng Yanqin's body being dumped in a mass grave.
Instead, they received a formal notice that the Northern Frontier wanted a political marriage.
The entire court: ???
But the Central Plains had no princess!
A haughty, overbearing beauty as the bottom x a cold, obsessive, loyal-dog top
Strong x strong, both leads are virgins, and the sweethearts dote on each other~
Theme: A gentleman should strive constantly to improve himself.
