An imperial edict bound the general Ling Xiao, who had been on the battlefield for many years, and the talented third prince Xiao Jingyuan together. Ling Xiao originally wanted to resist the edict, but was frightened by Xiao Jingyuan's words, "Resisting the edict means killing everyone in the family." He was so frightened that he had no choice but to marry into the prince's palace reluctantly.
Life after marriage can be called "ordeal" for Ling Xiao: he is forced to learn etiquette, read and write, and he has to give Jamel Xiao a pink chrysanthemum every night. Jamel Xiao seemed to be his natural nemesis, always able to control him to death.
But in getting along day after day, Ling Xiao gradually discovered the delicacy and tenderness under Jamel Xiao's cold appearance. And he himself was unknowingly attracted to the third prince. Where will this marriage, which began with an imperial edict, end up?
