The Emperor's Lucky Mistake 31

Emily and her half-sister Chloe were both vying for the same husband. Their father and stepmother secretly assisted Chloe in marrying the successful candidate from the imperial exams, even though Emily had chosen him first. One day, Chloe's ball accidentally fell into the hands of a beggar, and the three of them conspired to force Emily into marrying him, unaware that the beggar was actually the emperor in disguise, searching for his savior. That savior turned out to be Emily herself.
