Gu Zhao, the neglected Third Prince, insisted on marrying Shen Du—the "Demoness of the Border" everyone in the capital avoided, a General Who Guards the Nation rumored to be bloodthirsty and feared even by the Emperor. Officials laughed at his madness, but he clutched the jade pendant Shen Du dropped when saving him years ago and knelt in the Golden Palace to ask for her hand. On their wedding night, Shen Du pressed a knife to his neck, only for him to whisper: "I know you took the blame for your brother, hid your softness of making sweet taro balls—I’m here to be your fallback." It turns out Shen Du’s "infamy" was armor to protect the kingdom, and Gu Zhao’s "madness" was早就 targeting her true heart. While other princes fought for the throne, Gu Zhao had already quelled border troubles with Shen Du’s military tally; while the world still cursed the "demoness," he had spoiled her into the sugar in his palm. From "mutual testing" to "guarding the kingdom together," they realized the sweetest twist is marrying the "ferocious person" no one dared touch, only to hold the warmest light in the world.
