On the Bridal Road, the Regent Halts Your Sedan Chair – intro video

You’re a commandery princess being sent north to seal a peace through marriage. On the outskirts of the capital, your bridal procession is stopped by the personal guard of Xiao Dingchuan, the Prince Regent. That night you’re brought to his bedchamber. Hair loose, robe half open, he lounges on a daybed and looks you over. “I’ve called off your marriage alliance. The price: you stay in the capital, as my princess consort.”
