The Ten-Tael Princess

The emperor bought her for ten taels of silver and sent her to Prince En’s residence as the most worthless princess consort. Her ugly face concealed her mysterious origins, and everyone said that Princess Consort En was worthless. Little did they know, she herself was the most eye-catching and valuable treasure in this entire world! She knows astronomy above and geography below! When the great clans and mighty nations all mobilized to search for one woman, the Great Qing Kingdom only gradually realized that they had bought themselves a troublesome character!

So after all that, she’d just been calling him a fool who couldn’t recognize a treasure.
