A Mistaken Marriage, Spoiled Across Six Kingdoms

She, the most exalted woman in all the world. Once, they fought side by side on blood-soaked battlefields. Once, to save him, she let a parasitic worm enter her body. Once, seeing her in tattered clothes with not a single hairpin, he swore, “One day, I’ll make you the most exalted person in the world.” But as his power grew, he became a fearsome God of War, dreaded throughout the Four Realms. The first thing he did was marry the legitimate daughter of the powerful chancellor, renowned as the most talented woman in the imperial capital. She was demoted from wife to concubine, and even the world thought she was unworthy of him. Little did they know she had the vision to rule the world and the strategy to bring the Four Realms to heel. Even her elegant appearance concealed a beauty that could topple kingdoms. Nor did they know that within her seemingly delicate body lay a brilliant heart, the most precious thing in the world. When he whipped her for another woman, she smiled instead of crying. “Qu Qingchen, from this day forward, we are through. Our seven years as husband and wife end here.” Years later, as six kingdoms clashed and three great powers rose, a saying spread across the land: Whoever wins the heart of one woman will win the world.
