Everyone knows that the feud between the Xie and Pei families was settled with three hundred lives and will never be resolved in this lifetime.
Xie Hengwu thought so too - until the Queen Mother issued a marriage decree and put her and the Pei family's young general Pei Yanzhi into the same game.
She is the most talented woman in the south of the Yangtze River. She has mastered the ability of "not having her own way in everything" for twenty years. No one can make the decision for her. He joined the army as a young man, was decisive in killing, and refused to obey orders, but he harbored old grudges. He entered the capital half for marriage and half for enmity.
Living in the same house, they are tit for tat, testing each step. He didn't expect that she could break his chess game in three moves, and she didn't expect that he would stay in front of her bed until dawn. The investigation into the old case got deeper and deeper, and the conspiracy became more and more dangerous. The moment the knife fell, he blocked it for her.
In the late night with candlelight flickering, she thought he was asleep and whispered three words.
He didn't fall asleep.
The hatred is gone, but the love remains. I am in love with you, and I will complain to you together.
