Song Rou is the Chancellor's only precious daughter. Her mother dotes on her, her father protects her, and her brother cherishes her. But after a single encounter on the Lantern Festival night, the formidable Regent insists that Song Rou become his princess consort. She is unwilling, but her “father” runs into one difficulty after another at court, enraging the Emperor. They both know the Regent is behind it all. With no other choice, she seeks him out in private, and they marry three days later. Who could have imagined that on their wedding night he would slaughter her entire family…
Heaven gives her another chance, but to her surprise, she meets him again. This time, he is so “pitiful,” so… different.
