The most outrageous thing Yun Shuyi has ever done in her life is probably to sneak into the Prince Regent's Palace late at night to steal pictures. However, she is caught by the powerful Xiao Hengzhi, and is forced to sign a trade agreement that "help him bring down the Queen Mother, and he will help the Yun family clear their grievances."
In order to consolidate this alliance, she carelessly racked her brains to plan a lifelong happiness for Xiao Hengzhi.
The loyal and brave daughter of the Hou family is gentle and virtuous? She wrote the letter of recommendation overnight and sent it to the Prince Regent's Palace.
Is the daughter of a noble family extremely talented? She pulled Xiao Hengzhi's sleeve and enthusiastically recommended the surprising glimpse at the palace banquet.
She thought she was doing everything right, but she didn't see the frost in Xiao Hengzhi's phoenix eyes every time he mentioned other women, the tea cup and jade pendant that he crushed to pieces, and even the white jade bead-embedded hairpin given to her by the son of the magistrate of the Taiyuan Hospital.
Until a rainy night, when she accidentally broke into his private bathhouse to search for clues about banned drugs, she saw him with his eyes closed and sinking. The next second, he was pulled into his arms, and the hot kiss was filled with suppressed anger and lust.
He pressed her forehead against hers and asked in a hoarse voice: "Yun Shuyi, is it the red thread that this king wants, or you, do you not understand?"
Yun Shuyi was stunned on the spot.
Aren't they the promised trading allies?
She was busy pulling the strings, why did he want to marry her?

The male protagonist: He is cruel and domineering to the outside world, and jealous at home. He is driven crazy by the female protagonist's slowness, and finally can't help but do it himself, tying the red thread around his and her wrists.
