Pei Yan, the most valiant general of the Dashuo Dynasty, fought bloody battles at the border for three years. On the day of his victory, he received a ridiculous marriage offer - he wanted to marry Xiao Lingyi, the ninth princess in the palace who had been imprisoned for ten years because of "unlucky" names.
This is clearly a humiliation, a beating from an emperor to a person with great achievements.
With the red candle burning high, Pei Yan opened his hijab, and what he saw was not the cowardly sadness he expected. The woman in front of her, with eyes as cold as stars, spoke calmly: "General, this marriage is a prison for you and me, and it can also become a scabbard for each other. I will help you clear away the royal suspicions, and you allow me ten years of peace, how about it?"
He thought he would marry an exquisite political ornament, but he did not know that he had personally uncovered a palace secret that had been silent for many years. Pei Yan's cold heart was gradually shaken by her medical talent, her keen insight into the court situation, and the fire hidden in her eyes when she occasionally looked outside the palace wall.
When the old conspiracies come back like a tidal wave, when sincerity quietly breeds in the machinations, this marriage that started with a transaction will eventually be based on the country as a chess piece and deep love as the focus. He wanted these thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, and even more so, he wanted to use these mountains and rivers as a betrothal gift in exchange for her sincere smile for the rest of her life.
