Lu Xiuwen, the most inconspicuous concubine of the Duke of Jingguo, was forced to marry Xie Mingwei, the most arrogant and indulgent lord of Mingxi County in the capital.
A marriage with different plans, two enemies who hate each other.
He thought she was a caged bird who knew no pain, and she thought he was an incompetent scholar who clung to the powerful.
Until——
He studied hard while living in poverty, and was named on the gold medal list, which caused a stir in the court.
She shed her pride and ran thousands of miles to hold his hand in danger.
Corruption cases, water transportation reform, land clearing... They went from guarding against each other to fighting side by side, and became each other's most solid reliance in the turbulent political situation.
"Later, the whole capital heard—"
The concubine who was once looked down upon became the most respected and capable minister of the Holy Emperor.
But the people who laughed at the marriage saw him personally preparing medicine for the sick county lord, and heard him say warmly:
"Mingwei, the happiest thing in my life is that I married you that day."
