After Their Divorce, She Ruled the Capital, and Her Ex’s Family Wept with Regret

Three years ago, Jiang Ran happily married the man she thought was her perfect match, only for him to leave her on their wedding night and head off to war.

Jiang Ran bore no resentment as she remained confined to the inner household. She honored her parents-in-law, managed the family estate, and worked herself to the bone, all so her beloved husband would have a home to return to.

But three years later, the man came back to the capital with the woman he loved.

His eyes held only her, and he showered her with boundless affection.

Jiang Ran refused to become a lovesick, resentful wife. If he had no feelings for her, she would let him go. With a petition, she won an imperial decree granting their divorce, but the scandal filled the city with gossip, and her husband's family humiliated her while her own family reproached her.

Faced with hardship, Jiang Ran remained calm. She looked up at the open sky and resolved to carve out her own path to a better future.

Yet whenever she looked back, one man was always standing there, noble and unshakable, with a gentle gaze.

“Ran, just keep moving forward boldly. I will protect you through all the miles of this realm.”
