"The two beauties of the Xu family have completely different destinies. One is a favored concubine, who was said to have been personally welcomed back to the palace by the emperor yesterday, enjoying unparalleled favor. The other is to marry a cripple and live a miserable life, perhaps ruining her entire life..."

Outside the sedan chair, the voices of the commoners discussing could be heard.

They were all sympathizing with me.

The sedan chair came to a stop, and a hand reached out towards me.

I placed my hand on top of it, the hand was broad with calluses.

I got off the sedan chair and caught a glimpse of the figure sitting in the wheelchair.

This is the renowned young warrior, Chen Xiang.

For a long time, tales of Chen Xiang's misfortune circulated in the capital, and I often heard about it in the palace as well.

Chen Xiang was the son of the Marquis, renowned for his bravery and skill in battle, with an esteemed status.

However, the jealousy of heaven caused him to become disabled, turning him into a worthless individual. Now even his position in the Marquis's residence is extremely embarrassing, with rumors of ill-treatment by his stepmother.

As for the Marquis, he turns a blind eye to it all.

A man who was once glorious has now fallen to such a state, evoking sighs of sympathy.

It seems that these rumors are not without basis.

Because this wedding is indeed simple and crude.

There are only a few guests, and the gifts are scarce. The bridal chamber that Chen Xiang and I are in is also barely decorated.

I had just sat down when Chen Xiang entered, lifting my red veil.

When I saw Chen Xiang's face, I was stunned.

His sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, his exceptional handsomeness, and a shallow scar on his cheek exuding a hint of killing intent, adding to his wildness.

He sat in the wheelchair, exuding a carefree demeanor, masking his desolation.

"Madam, do you regret marrying a useless person like me? It's too late for regrets now. Before getting on the bridal sedan, there was still a chance.

"I don't regret it," I replied.

Chen Xiang froze for a moment, didn't say anything more, and instead helped me take off the heavy headdress.

Chen Xiang is not a useless person.

Even though his legs are disabled, he can still command the three armies, and in the future, he will soar to the sky."
