Ning Qingyu, the eldest daughter of Duke Ning's family, was born dignified and gentle, with a temperament like an orchid. She was also famous for her talents and was known as the most talented woman in the Yue Kingdom. Li Jin was one of the countless young men in the capital who fell in love with her. He admired her gentleness and talent, and secretly kept her in his heart, hoping to marry her and stay together for the rest of his life.
But no one knew that Ning Qingyu had always been interested in Prince Li Mu and had no affection for anyone else. His Majesty conferred a marriage and only said that "Ning Guogong's legitimate daughter" would be betrothed to Li Jin. Without naming her, she secretly moved her thoughts and pushed her sister Ning Wanrou, who was a compatriot on her mother's side, into a substitute marriage.
When facing Li Jin afterwards, she just shed tears and said that her sister was infatuated with him and insisted on getting married. As the eldest sister, she had no choice but to fulfill her sincerity. Li Jin believed her gentle words. Although he felt regretful in his heart, he couldn't bear to blame her.
On their wedding night, he met Ning Wanrou. This girl was so beautiful and dazzling that she was so beautiful that she was completely different from Ning Qingyu's gentleness and dignity. Her beauty was so dazzling and touching. But his heart belonged to someone else, and there was never a place for her in his eyes. He was cold, distant, and indifferent to her from beginning to end.
Even though Ning Wanrou had a peerless appearance, she could only receive a cold reception. She silently guarded the Kongji Palace and lived her life with sincerity and gentleness without fighting or complaining.
As the days went by, Li Jin gradually discovered that this seemingly bright and delicate girl was transparent, kind and tenacious. She never said much about her grievances, but she did everything for his sake and warmed his already frozen heart in every detail. From the initial indifference to unconscious attention, and then to the fall step by step, he finally let go of his obsession and completely fell in love with the wife who had been neglected by him for a long time.
