Daughter of a merchant marries into the Marquis’s mansion, becoming the laughingstock of the Upper Capital.
For six years, Jiang Shu has lived alone, supporting the Marquis’s mansion without complaint or regret.
However, when her long-awaited husband returns from the border, he brings back a wife and two sons.
Not only that, Shen Changze also petitions for the establishment of a co-wife, disgracing Jiang Shu and turning her into a laughingstock in the Upper Capital.
Ha! Does he really think she is a lifeless clay figure with no temper?
Jiang Shu cuts off the financial support to the Marquis’s mansion, making them realize how hard life can be without money.
Again and again, her heart softens, only to be met with disappointment. Jiang Shu finally resolves to divorce.
Shen Changze thought that as a divorced woman, no one would covet her, but unexpectedly, she becomes the object of contention among noble families.
He regrets his actions and seeks to marry her again, only to be doused with a bucket of dirty water.
As he leaves, covered in filth, he sees the emperor’s close attendant entering the Jiang residence to proclaim an imperial edict.
Jiang Shu is granted in marriage to Prince Jing, leaving him with no chance.
When they meet again, Jiang Shu stands beside Prince Jing, dignified and radiant, a sight to behold.
Shen Changze kneels and pays his respects, watching her and Prince Jing in perfect harmony.
Yuzheng’s cold gaze sweeps over, “Marquis of Jing’an, show some respect!”
