The Untamable Consort: Your Highness, Choose Your Bride with Care

In this struggle for imperial power, was she the one who stirred up the storm, or was he the one who turned the world upside down?

*

A disastrous transmigration landed her in a world torn by chaos.

With a greatsword in hand and her hair in disarray, she ran the bandit business so disgracefully that she could never face her ancestors again.

Just as she was about to run out of options, she bumped into him and unceremoniously blocked his way with her butcher's knife. “Your money... or your virtue!”

He raised an eyebrow, a smile that never reached his eyes. “What a shame. I’m so poor I’ve got nothing left but my underwear.”

As it turned out, he lured her into murder and arson with promises of money, calling it by the grand name of “cutting off the enemy’s retreat.”

She had once been a Golden Saint, but after transmigrating, she found herself flat on her back in a patch of weeds.

He was the least favored of the Great Qi Empire’s nine princes, and had suffered every kind of humiliation since childhood.

But when a woman like her met a man like him, it was bound to be more than just ordinary chaos.

When a room piled high with dazzling Yunluo brocade left her stunned, she gaped at him. “Your Highness, I thought you said you were dirt poor!”

He smiled gently. “I’ve always kept a low profile.”

When his impressive status was laid bare before her, she stamped her foot in fury. “Your Highness, I thought you said you were worthless!”

He remained unruffled. “I don’t like to show off.”

When he cornered her step by step, he breathed softly against her. “All under heaven is the king’s land. You can never escape my grasp.”

She remained calm. “A hero’s origins don’t matter, and a bandit doesn’t care about age. Your Highness, be careful you don’t lose both the bride and the battle.”

When the dust settled, he took the throne.

With a grand procession of wedding gifts, he sought her hand, enough to dazzle an entire kingdom.

On their wedding night, she drove a sword through his chest and smiled sweetly. “The world is yours for the taking, but you can’t have me.”
