Su Ling, the legitimate daughter of the Duke's mansion, had always done as she pleased. One day, she happened upon a young man and brought him home. Little did she know that everything had been part of a long-laid plan.
Once he shed his disguise, he was Leng Yan: a powerful minister who held sway over the court, and the ruler of a neighboring kingdom.
There was no mutual salvation between them, only Su Ling's endless descent into ruin. Day and night, Su Ling prayed that Leng Yan would not be too lonely in hell.
