Accidentally Became Emperor After Marrying For Peace

I, Ning Lingyi, the Southern Dynasty's peace-marriage princess, initially thought I was in a palace intrigue drama. Unexpectedly, my illegitimate brother usurped the throne, sentencing my entire family to death. No time for words, escape at once!

During my escape, I ran into Tuoba Hong, the Khaan of Beishuo, my intended marriage partner. He said, “Come back with me, and I'll make you my Great Consort.” I thought, “Oh? So you like keeping canaries in cages. I'll humor you.”

So, I led my army north, flattened Beishuo, unified the realm, and ascended to the throne as Emperor, locking him atop a high platform.

On our wedding night, I held the nuptial cup. With his kingdom shattered and family gone, he turned his head, shedding tears, refusing to drink, looking utterly pitiable. I tenderly wiped away his tears: “Why cry? You are the most esteemed canary in this world, and you are the only one.”

#Overbearing Khaan fiercely pursues his wife only to be thoroughly tormented, reluctantly becoming the Empress's husband.

#The promise to marry you was just a trick; I only wanted to free-ride you.

#Look at you, getting anxious when you can't win, why cry? It's not like I don't dote on you.

My career path: After being chosen as a peace-marriage princess, Ning Lingyi subdued a top scholar, used her fiefdom as a starting point, gathered 3,000 elite soldiers as her foundation; obtained brilliant strategies from a counselor in Hesh朔, and secured the Yanluo rebels without bloodshed.

She led her army north, killed the Qiang King, imprisoned the Beishuo Khaan, and finally pointed her sword at the capital, establishing a new dynasty and achieving imperial unification.

Later histories record: The New Dynasty's Grand Ancestor, Emperor Wen, as a peace-marriage princess, pacified chaos and eliminated rebels, crushed two foreign enemies, and after ascending the great throne, independently made the Beishuo Khaan her imperial husband, taking no other consorts throughout her life.

She reigned for 25 years, during which the country was peaceful, and the people lived happily. This era was known as the “Taichu Rule.” In her later years, she abdicated in favor of her younger sister, a much-praised story for all time.
