Shen Qingtang did not expect that a chance encounter would become the scene of an alliance between the three women.
She was a concubine who was getting married on behalf of her sister-in-law, and the person she was going to marry was the "sick young son" of the Yongning Marquis Mansion - it was said that he would not live more than three months.
Liu Ruyan was a substitute who was "sold" by her stepmother into the palace, and she was going to marry King Su's brother who "kept his wife" - two concubines who had already died.
Zhen Mi was a bride deceived from the south of the Yangtze River. She was going to marry the "crazy" young master of the Zhen family - he beat everyone on sight and had already driven three concubines crazy.
Three women met at the post station where the sedan chair was handed over. After lifting their headscarves, they discovered that they were marrying three brothers from the same man's family, and this "marriage bureau" was actually a wife-killing scam designed by these three men.
