Synopsis
Maria, nicknamed Mimi, is the fifth daughter of the Annovazzi ducal family, a martial house in the Kingdom of Muro. Raised to inherit the family, she loses that position when a younger brother is born when she is 15. Her four older sisters are already engaged to eligible noblemen, and because Maria was trained as an heir rather than a lady, she is considered late to marry. She goes to the neighboring Kingdom of Rubini to study and find a husband. There, first prince Renato unexpectedly tells her he is breaking their engagement. He meant to say it to his actual fiancée Aida, Maria’s similar-looking relative, but confused the two. Renato hopes to use a recent incident to undo the marriage arranged by Aida’s father and pass the engagement to his younger brother Placido. Maria helps Renato resolve the incident, and he proposes to her.
