Where Did the Princess's Husband Run Off To?

Princess Shaolan’s husband-to-be has run away. She travels thousands of miles to Jian Ning City to chase after him, only to discover that he has little time left to live, and that their arranged marriage was nothing more than a scheme by the emperor.

As the scheme unfolds, a conspiracy hatched twenty years ago, one that nearly plunged the Great Yu dynasty into chaos, is gradually exposed, implicating countless people in both the former court and the imperial harem.

Just when everything is finally about to be settled, Shaolan discovers that her husband-to-be has a childhood friend who’s secretly in love with him! Red-eyed, she begs her imperial brother to arrange a political marriage for her with Western Sichuan, but her husband-to-be intercepts her on the way. “My princess, come home with me. How about I kneel on a washboard for you?”

The proud Princess Shaolan can’t help secretly rejoicing. I knew you couldn’t escape my grasp.
