Main quest: 1. Do not marry Shangguan Li.
2. Abuse of Fu Zige.
Side Quest: "Teasing Innocent Ink" requires a 75% or higher affinity rating to pass. (Optional)
When Lu Qingyan regained consciousness, she felt unwell and swaying. Upon closer inspection, she found herself dressed in a red wedding gown, sitting in a bridal sedan chair, and could hear joyful music playing in her ears.
Thinking of the main quest's requirement not to marry Shangguan Li, Lu Qingyan felt a pang of sadness.
She's already in the bridal sedan chair, how can she possibly escape?
[Su Han, plot summary.] Lu Qingyan took a deep breath. It's best to accept the plot as soon as possible, otherwise it won't be good if she makes a mistake later.
Shangguan Li is the youngest half-brother of the current emperor. He is greatly favored and has always gotten whatever he wanted since childhood.
When he came of age, he fell in love at first sight with Fu Zige, the eldest daughter of the Imperial Censor, at a banquet.
At that time, Shangguan Li was still a boy. He was both scholarly and martial, and handsome. Everyone in the capital liked him, but he took a fancy to Fu Zige, whose status was not the highest.
Fu Zige didn't object to someone like Shangguan Li. She shyly accepted the young man's pursuit, and Shangguan Li took the opportunity to ask the emperor for a decree to grant them marriage.
Just as the northern enemy invaded, a man of integrity like Shangguan Li naturally wanted to share the burden for his country, so he volunteered to go to the battlefield to fight the enemy and quell the rebellion.
“Your Majesty has been teaching me since childhood, which is why I have achieved my current reputation. I know that Your Majesty also wishes to personally go and quell the rebellion when the northern enemy invades. However, the country cannot be without a ruler for a day, and the Crown Prince is still young. I am willing to go in Your Majesty’s place.”
Shangguan Li spoke with great passion, and the emperor was somewhat moved. Thinking that there were still many fierce generals in the north and nothing unexpected would happen, he granted his request.
Who would have thought that this unexpected event would occur?
Prince Shangguan Li was severely injured in the northern frontier, his appearance was disfigured, and one of his legs was crippled.
Upon receiving this news, many noble ladies in the capital fainted from grief, while Fu Zige's eyes showed a hint of disgust.
Fu Ziwu understood clearly that she no longer wanted to marry the now physically and mentally disabled Prince Yi. However, the imperial decree had already been issued and could not be changed; the marriage was inevitable.
Thinking this way, Fu Ziwu didn't take Fu Zige's temporary resistance to heart. Little did she know that she would be so badly tricked by her elder sister.
Fu Ziwu was also the eldest daughter of the Fu family and Fu Zige's younger sister. After Fu Zige was betrothed, she was also engaged to Prince De, who was a few months older than Prince Yi.
In terms of status, Prince De was no lower than Prince Yi, but in terms of imperial favor, Prince De was far inferior to Prince Yi.
Although it's somewhat inappropriate for an older sister to marry her younger brother and a younger sister to marry her older brother, these are royal marriages and few dare to discuss them.
Before Prince Yi's incident, everyone envied Fu Zige; after Prince Yi's incident, Fu Ziwu became the one envied.
After suffering such a blow, Prince Yi's temperament changed drastically. He would beat and kill servants in his mansion at the drop of a hat, and his reputation in the capital was ruined beyond recognition.
