Shen Qingning was originally the legitimate daughter of a second-rank official, but her fiancé Gu Chengan wanted Shen Qingning to marry the memorial tablet of her brother who died in the war so that he could marry the lotus picker Liu Ruyan. The barrage that suddenly appeared in front of Shen Qingning told Shen Qingning that Gu Lingyun was not dead and had been secretly in love with Shen Qingning for many years! Shen Qingning happily agreed to change the marriage, held the memorial tablet and paid homage to the church. On the night of the wedding, Gu Lingyun returned on horseback. He opened the door and saw that the bride was Shen Qingning. He immediately beat Gu Chengan out who broke in. Gu Chengan's heart was filled with regret - Shen Qingning became the general's wife from then on, and Gu Chengan could only watch as Shen Qingning was doted on by Gu Lingyun!
