A Perfect Match

The most talented woman in the capital, Gu Junruo, married the most handsome man in the capital, Han Mu of lower status. It sounds like a good story, but no one in the capital thinks that this is a good marriage.

Because the most handsome man in the capital has another important title – the number one silk trousers* in the capital!

Sure enough, just as Gu Junruo entered the door, an accident happened at the wedding banquet. Han Mu broke Jiang Huai’s leg, the second son of Marquis Yongping, who came to watch the ceremony. On the third day of their marriage, he was expelled from the capital and was sent to a poor county to serve as the county magistrate.

No one thinks that this is a good marriage, even Han Mu thinks so, and once wanted Gu Junruo to get out of his sea of suffering.

(*T/N: Silk trousers mean ‘frivolous’, often used to describe someone who enjoys the privileges of wealth without necessarily having earned them or appreciating value.)
