She was originally the legitimate daughter of a scholarly family in Suzhou. She had read poetry and books since she was a child, and had a good appreciation of calligraphy and calligraphy. She was originally scheduled to marry the legitimate son of a wealthy family. From then on, she treated her like a guest and lived a stable life.
However, on the day of her wedding, the concubine and her fiancé jointly planned to send her to the capital with a cup of drug and a small sedan to marry the famous dandy on her behalf.
On their wedding night, facing the drunken groom, she pulled out the golden hairpin from her hair and put it against her throat: "If the prince asks for sex, he will step over my corpse." Pei Yan, who was drunk and blurred, had a glint in his eyes at that moment that no one noticed.
This calculated marriage is the beginning of a relationship between two smart people.
He is the legitimate son of a British prince, the number one dandy in the capital, a cockfighting lackey, and a wanderer in the market. Everyone knows that he is a useless prodigal. But no one knows that underneath this ridiculous mask is a dragnet he has laid out to avoid the competition between the court and the factions, and to hide in the market. The gambling house is an information station, the theater is a contact point, and all the different religions in the cockfighting ring are at his disposal.
She was pitied by the world and thought she had fallen into a pit of fire; he was despised by the world and thought that mud could not hold up a wall. Little did they know that this surrogate marriage was actually the prelude to a perfect union between the two powerful forces.
From the thrilling fights in the backyard to the turmoil of the party fights in the court; from the desperate survival of confinement after confiscating the house, to the beating of drums by women in the defense of the capital. She lost her ladylike weakness and became his red-sleeved military advisor, strategizing in the circle of ladies; he took off the mask of a playboy, started as a seventh-grade official, and rebuilt his family name step by step.
