In her previous life, Martel Ruolan mistakenly married into the eighth master's house, and was trapped in a prison all her life. She watched her childhood sweetheart Qingshan die in battle, and finally died in depression beside the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng.
Once reborn, she returned to the day of her wedding to Yinhu. The red candles in the wedding room are swaying, but her heart is as solid as a rock - in this life, she would rather lose to the emperor's family than the one she loves!
Refusing to consummate their marriage, quarreling against Fujin, and seeking to live in a Buddhist temple, she fought every step of the way, just to break free from the shackles of the Eighth Master's House; Lian Ruoxi, Bu faked her death, and found Qingshan, and she tried her best just to rewrite the tragedy of her previous life.
Neither Ba Ye's gentle probing nor Minghui's pressing steps could stop her from running towards her lover. But Qingshan's edge gradually emerged, which finally aroused Yinsu's suspicion. The truth about his fake death was revealed, and past disputes came back again.
Facing Master Ba's questioning and unwillingness, Ruolan responded calmly: "I had a deep love in my past life, but in this life I just want to grow old with Qingshan."
When Yinzhu let go of his obsession and the cage was completely shattered, Martel Ruolan finally took on a new identity and fought together with his beloved for a peaceful life.
