“Did you hear? The Prime Minister's eldest daughter is going to marry the Wise Prince's heir!”
“The Prime Minister's daughter is beautiful and talented, and the Wise Prince's heir is peerless. What a perfect match!”
The people of the Tianqian Dynasty spread the news everywhere.
Inside the Prime Minister's residence, Ji Yunshu sneered at the imperial edict. Beautiful and talented?
Talented? That's just a rumor repeated until people believe it.
Beautiful? At best, she's a pretty, unremarkable girl.
At the Wise Prince's residence, Fu Jingyuan gazed at the edict, his phoenix eyes deep and unreadable.
The edict clearly said the Prime Minister's eldest daughter was to marry the Wise Prince's son, yet everyone outside was saying she would marry the heir?
That one-character difference was no small matter.
The Wise Prince's heir curled his lips with interest. Suddenly, he had become the Wise Prince's son instead.
One character made all the difference between heaven and earth.
This was getting interesting!
◆ On their wedding night:
“Are you Ji Yunshu, the Prime Minister's daughter who's both beautiful and talented?” the man asked.
“Are you Fu Jingxiao, the peerless heir of the Wise Prince?” the woman countered.
“I'm not,” they answered at the same time.
“Sorry, I'm neither talented nor beautiful,” the woman replied casually.
“I'm neither peerless nor the Wise Prince's heir,” the man said lazily, a smile in his voice.
“You're not the heir?” The woman's eyes widened in disbelief.
“The edict clearly says the Wise Prince's son, not the Wise Prince's heir.” The man sat down and answered languidly.
The woman took out the edict. It read: “The Prime Minister's eldest daughter, Ji Yunshu, is to marry the Wise Prince's son...”
Who in the world didn't know that the Wise Prince's heir was gentle as jade and peerless, while his second son was hideously ugly and good for nothing?
The woman glared at the man, furious.
The man looked back at her with an innocent expression.
Could someone explain how her perfectly good husband, the heir, had turned into someone else?
◆ On Mount Qishan:
“Wife, I'm sorry you've had to marry a good-for-nothing who's both useless and hideously ugly,” the man said, wrapping his arms around her.
The woman looked at the stunningly handsome man before her, at a loss for words.
Was this really the legendary good-for-nothing who had the emperor dancing in the palm of his hand, thrown the prince's estate into chaos, and plunged the neighboring kingdoms into turmoil?
She had to be dreaming. Otherwise, why did she feel that...
the world was about to change?
Fu Jingyuan, no matter what the world thinks of you, you are the one my heart belongs to, Ji Yunshu, and I will never regret it. One day, people will open their eyes and give you the recognition you deserve!
Ji Yunshu, you have more wonderful qualities than I could ever count. You are the love of my life, Fu Jingyuan, and I will follow you through life and death!
◆ In a nutshell, this is the story of a formidable woman who marries a good-for-nothing, clears his name, joins him in seeking revenge, takes on the world, and leaves everyone stunned.
◆ The Buddha said: Don't believe everything you hear.
◆ Some people are formidable in plain sight and best left alone, just like her.
Others hide their formidable side deep within, and are even more dangerous, just like him.
When a hidden force joins with an open one, they're truly not to be messed with, just like the two of them.
◆ The male lead is pure in both body and heart. There may be handsome men and beautiful women, but the ending is strictly monogamous!
