Synopsis

Jiang Xinyue, the Commander's daughter, was forced to become a surrogate for her older sister. Made to sign a humiliating contract, she became Rong Qiubai, the Governor of Jiangzhong's secret mistress in the military, imprisoned in a gilded cage and cut off from the light of day.

She treated him coldly; he had been plotting for a long time. He took her by force, and she was consumed by hatred and love.

The warlord's young master, Zheng Hemin, her childhood sweetheart, went mad for her. He used war as his matchmaker and the realm as his wager, vowing to take her back.

In a world torn apart by war, two powerful men fought over her. Covered in wounds, she fled far away and didn't dare return.

Years later, the young marshal searched across the land until he finally found her.

They reunited, and from then on, they stayed together through every meal and every season, never leaving each other's side.
