Substitute marriage to a concubine + cold-faced prince + misplaced marriage + intrigue + two-way temptation
Shen Wei never thought that his life would be rewritten as a "substitute". For the sake of her seriously ill biological mother, she was forced to wear her sister's wedding dress, marry into the Prince of Jing'an, and become the princess of Xiao Che, the cold-faced and powerful prince.
Wrapped in red silk, she is Shen Qingyan, the daughter of the Shen family, a noble daughter in the capital; taking off her finery, she is Shen Wei, a chess piece that can be sacrificed at any time.
On their wedding night, Xiao Che's fingertips brushed her temples and revealed her identity with one sentence: "You are not Shen Qingyan."
She thought her death was coming, but he handed her a contract: "Be my king's pawn and keep you and your mother safe."
From then on, she worked step by step in the palace, learning to be the arrogant "Shen Qingyan", dealing with the scrutiny of the concubine, resisting the difficulties of her love rivals, and even more, she had to deal with the Shen family's calculations behind her - the account books of Northern Xinjiang they wanted her to steal contained secrets that could overthrow the dynasty.
And the seemingly indifferent prince always quietly takes action when she is in trouble. He taught her that "chess pieces should have their own thoughts," but he left a light for her late at night; he said, "Don't trust anyone," but there was a warmth in his eyes that she couldn't understand.
When Shen Bojun's conspiracy comes to light, when the war in northern Xinjiang rages towards the capital, when her identity can no longer be concealed——
Xiao Che protected her behind him and pointed his sword at the enemy: "My princess, it is not anyone else's turn to point fingers."
Shen Wei looked at his back and suddenly understood: this substitutionary marriage, which started out as a calculation, had already quietly changed in quality through day after day of testing and protection.
