"It is a strange news in the world that a legitimate daughter fills the concubine's house."
Uncle Ning Yuan's mansion once married his concubine Lin Yunshu to Shen Ping, who was a groom. When Shen Ping became a feudal official, Lin Yunshu died mysteriously. Ning Yuan's family wanted to renew their marriage, but Shen Ping named Lin Wanwei, the eldest daughter-in-law, a sick and frail woman who had been forgotten by the family.
Lin Wanwei, who had never thought about getting married, was forced to become a political bargaining chip. After marrying into the general's mansion, she discovered that the marriage was Shen Ping's revenge on Ning Yuanbo's mansion. In the whirlpool of power and hatred, the frail and sick Lin Wanwei must find his own way to survive. And when Shen Ping discovered that there was an unknown tenacity hidden in the eyes of this seemingly weak daughter-in-law, the two wounded hearts gradually got closer, and together they uncovered a secret that could subvert Ning Yuanbo's mansion.
