Shen Jinghong, the legitimate daughter of the Shen Mansion in Hedong, has been practicing martial arts with a military instructor since she was a child. She is sassy and neat, and not at all delicate. Because her second sister refused to marry Lu Zhaoyan, the "evil god" of Jingan in Jizhou, in order to resolve the crisis of the Shen family's resistance to the imperial edict, she took the initiative to ask Ying to marry him. Little did she know that there was a shocking conspiracy behind this marriage - the death of Lu Zhaoyan's father and brother in battle was not an accident, but was caused by false news spread by King Xuan, who also wanted to use the marriage to control the Shen family and plot to seize the military power of Jizhou.
When she first arrived in Jizhou, Shen Jinghong was in crisis: an official was assassinated, an inn was destroyed, and a secret letter was found in the temple. She relied on her martial arts and resourcefulness to repeatedly overcome dangers, and even discovered the conspiracy of Lieutenant General Li, the spy in the army. Lu Zhaoyan was also moved by her courage. From the initial "contractual cooperation", he gradually became an ally working side by side in investigating the case. The two worked together to dig deep into the evidence of King Xuan's crime, dealing with the undercurrents inside and outside the Hou Mansion (such as the temptation to indulge his cousin Lin Waner), and in the life and death tests, they developed feelings that transcended interests.
When the secret letter of King Xuan's rebellion is exposed, the capital is in danger. Shen Jinghong not only wants to protect the Shen family, but also helps Lu Zhaoyan avenge his father and brother. In the troubled times, she used her sword as a shield and wisdom as an edge. She not only protected her family, but also fought side by side with Lu Zhaoyan. She became the most dazzling "Jinghong" in the troubled times, interpreting a legend of a legitimate daughter who "does not cause trouble and is not afraid of trouble".
