Su Wanli, the legitimate daughter of a general whose family was in decline, was offered a marriage to Shen Zhiheng, who had just been named the top scholar in the gold medal list.
Everyone said that she, the daughter of a guilty minister, was not worthy of the new top scholar who rose from a humble family, and they were waiting to see her abandoned, bullied, and punished.
But no one knew that this seemingly gentle and jade-like scholar was capable of both civil and military skills, and was ruthless and cruel.
Before the marriage, he promised: "If the Su family is in trouble, I will protect you."
After marriage, he practiced: "My wife is the only one, and anyone who touches her will die."
He was a clean figure in the court, rectified the finances, investigated corruption, and wielded power in both the government and the opposition;
He is a legend in northern Xinjiang. He went on missions to enemy countries, bowed and shot eagles, and was powerful in all directions;
He is a great historian who writes and compiles history. His name will remain in history and he will be admired by all generations.
And such a talented and beautiful man, with all his heart and eyes, could only pretend to be her.
The noble girl is making things difficult? He protected his wife in public and slapped everyone in the face.
Princess shows love? He bluntly refused to marry and would never marry again.
Traitor and traitor? He and his wife work together to cut down all the thorns.
From marrying first and falling in love to being dependent on each other for life and death, from being in the capital to being a pastor.
He promised her a stable life, and she would accompany him in his prosperity and fame.
The number one scholar in Dayong can only love one person in the palm of his hand, and he will never change it in this life.
