The Eldest Princess Is Divorcing the Duke Today, Too

In her previous life, Pingkang Grand Princess schemed her way through court, never imagining that the very blade she had honed would secretly kill her. Now, given a chance to live again, she swears to make the traitor pay in blood. Yet in both lives, she is fated to keep sparring in a political marriage with the Duke Who Guards the State, a man she can't stand and who feels the same about her. Yu Zheng was born in the northern frontier of Dayan and grew up amid the bitter cold and sandstorms beyond the border. He did not return to the imperial capital until he was ten. He then spent several years as a study companion to a prince, during which time the arrogant, domineering Pingkang Princess was always picking on him. At sixteen, war flared up along the border again. He donned his armor and joined his father on campaign, gradually becoming a young general. At twenty-four, he finally reclaimed the northern frontier prefectures occupied by foreign tribes, avenged his father, and became the youngest duke since the founding of Dayan. To reward him for his achievements, the emperor invoked the late emperor's decree and formally arranged his marriage to Pingkang Grand Princess. Yu Zheng understood perfectly well that their marriage was simply a matter of obeying the emperor's command. But why, later on, did those memories become so hard to let go of? Grand Princess: I regret divorcing you. Duke Who Guards the State: Your Highness finally admits that you love me. Grand Princess: Dream on. I want to divorce you!
