[1v1 Sweet Romance · Marriage Before Love · Mutual Devotion · Daily Romance · Gentle, delicate beauty ✖ Paranoid, ruthless villain lord]
The Duke of Zhen’s household, loyal through generations, left behind only one daughter—Yan Yu. Raised by her grandmother, she was betrothed to the Fifth Prince.
At fifteen, Yan Yu was about to enter the capital for her wedding. But at that moment, the Minister’s eldest daughter shamelessly entangled herself with the Fifth Prince, boasting that he would ascend the throne and she would be the first to claim the crown as empress.
Before the Empress Dowager, the Fifth Prince declared outright: he would never marry the orphaned Yan Yu, only the virtuous daughter of the Minister.

Fifth Prince: “Wait—no one told me Miss Wen was this beautiful…”
