Xiao Jue, the Prime Minister of the current dynasty, who was born in the military and dominated the government and the public with his illustrious military exploits and iron-blooded tactics, married Su Qingyan, a female scholar whose family was in decline, in order to consolidate his power. He regarded her as a pawn and wanted to tame her into a canary in a cage, but he did not expect that this seemingly weak woman was as smart and proud as the man. In their married life full of calculations, the two went from the initial sharp opposition and testing each other to being forced to join forces to deal with internal and external troubles in the court and the family. Xiao Jue's domineering desire for control repeatedly hit the wall in the face of Su Qingyan's wisdom and tenacity, and the cold inner wall gradually collapsed, opening up a ridiculous and thrilling "Crematorium of Chasing Wife". In the end, the two broke the bondage and transformed from the relationship between chess pieces and chess players into a power couple who truly work hand in hand and control their own destiny.
