Jiang Wanning was born into a merchant family, but was bullied because of her status as a concubine. In order to cling to the powerful, her aunt's mother betrothed her to the feared "General Shura" Lu Chenyuan. Rumor has it that Lu Chenyuan was so bloodthirsty that he would kill even friendly troops on the battlefield. Jiang Waning thought this was just a helpless choice to escape from the wolf's den and enter the tiger's mouth again.
The day I stepped into the General's Mansion, the cold wind carried the smell of blood and hit my face. But when she was kidnapped by someone sent by her brother, it was Lu Chenyuan who broke into the den of thieves single-handedly, covering her body with blood but keeping her safe; when she fell ill due to overwork, it was he who made the medicine with his own hands and stayed by the bed all night long. As they get along day after day, Jiang Wanning discovers that Lu Chenyuan is not born violent - his family was framed by traitors when he was young, and he was forced to bear the infamy of being the son of a traitor. He can only gain a foothold in the court by establishing his prestige through killing.
Jiang Wan Ning was no longer afraid. She quietly knocked on the closed door of his heart with the wristbands she had sewn by herself and the warm hot wine. And Lu Chenyuan also gradually let down his guard due to her gentleness and tenacity. Two souls struggling in the darkness cling to each other, and in the undercurrent of disputes in the court, work together to find the dawn that dispels the gloom, and write their own salvation and tenderness.
