A scholar from a poor family studied hard for ten years, and once he was named in the gold medal list, he thought he could find a place in the court with his true talents and knowledge, but unexpectedly an imperial edict broke all his plans - he was accused of marrying to the legitimate daughter of the powerful Duke of Zhenguo. The two people, who had no contact with each other, went through the application process, application process, and wedding process within three days, and got married in a flash. On the wedding night, the candles were shining brightly but they were relatively speechless. The whole room was filled with embarrassment and alienation. He is a powerless upstart from a humble family, and she is a proud daughter of a distinguished family. This seemingly inappropriate marriage caused an uproar in the court.
When he first entered the officialdom, he was assigned to the Qingshui Yamen. He was openly and secretly excluded by his colleagues and deliberately made things difficult by his superiors, making it difficult for him to carry out even the most basic official duties. And she, seemingly delicate and luxurious, is actually thoughtful and has hidden strategies. When he repeatedly encounters obstacles, she can always calmly hand over key clues to help him resolve the crisis. From testing each other to trusting each other, from looking at each other indifferently to working together side by side, he relied on his extraordinary resourcefulness to navigate step by step in the turbulent officialdom: investigating corruption, redressing injustice, promoting agriculture, and stabilizing the border. He did everything with great success, not only winning the love of the people, but also gradually gaining the appreciation of the emperor.
Those powerful forces who once despised him and suppressed him were finally slapped in the face by him. This flash marriage, which began with an imperial edict, had no earth-shattering vows, but in the official game of sharing the same boat through thick and thin, it formed the most affectionate bond in each other's lives. From a poor scholar, he counterattacked and became a pillar that could not be ignored in the court. This story of marriage first and love later has been spread throughout Beijing for a long time.
