Summary
[A vivacious, beautiful princess x a rough-edged, loyal general, 1v1, SC]
On the eve of her wedding, Li Kangning has a prophetic dream—
her gentle, upright prospective husband will secretly keep a mistress after they marry.
"The princess is beautiful, yes, but headstrong and spoiled—nothing like my Qingqing, who understands me so well..."
"Once the princess has 'passed away from illness,' I will marry Qingqing as my rightful wife."
Waking, Li Kangning laughs in fury.
She resolves on the spot to find a different husband!
The day the engagement is broken, a tall, imposing man comes to recommend himself.
The former fiancé's half-brother, General Pei Yizhi, brave and battle-hardened, has already earned brilliant military honors at just twenty.
In the dream, a year from now he will be sent to quell a rebellion in Moxi and die on the battlefield.
Li Kangning weighs it up: wouldn't being a widow be even freer? Him, then.
Editor's review
Who it's for
A good fit for
- Romance readers who enjoy marriage-first-love-after and breaking an engagement to change partners
- Fans of the vivacious heroine paired with a loyal, rough-edged general
- Commuters looking for light, sweet, satisfying reads in spare moments
- Readers who like secret-crush-come-true and quietly devoted heroes
Not a good fit for
- Hardcore historical readers expecting rigorous court intrigue and war detail
- Older-school readers who struggle to accept prophetic dreams and fate-changing premises
- Readers who prefer slow-burn, delicate prose and dislike direct romance lines
Reading tips
- Read the first few chapters—the broken engagement and the self-recommendation—to see if the pairing and pacing suit you before committing.
- Watch for clues to the hero's secret crush; a second read reveals many early echoes.
- Treat the prophetic dream as emotional suspense rather than a logical premise, and the read flows more smoothly.
- Best read before bed or in commute-sized chunks; each chapter is emotionally self-contained and easy to pick up.

About the author
Xidie is a web-novel author about whom little public information is available; her nationality, dates of birth and death, and English name are not clearly recorded. Six of her works are currently included in the collection: Chan Jin Zhi, The Difficult Demonic Empress, The Amnesiac Imperial Concubine Receives Favor, Deep Spring in the Golden Palace, The Villainous Supporting Actress Receives Favor, and Four Seasons of Sweetness. Her works are commonly categorized as time-travel and alternate-history fiction. Judging from these titles and categories, Xidie's writing tends to center on ancient court and alternate historical settings, weaving emotional and power struggles around figures such as empresses, imperial concubines, and supporting female characters. Words such as “receives favor,” “difficult,” and “deep spring” in the titles also suggest a focus on characters' circumstances and relational tension. Overall, her output is not large and her themes are relatively concentrated, showing a distinct flavor of court romance within the time-travel and alternate-history genre, which may appeal to readers who enjoy ancient settings and emotional entanglement.
