Before the house was confiscated, she emptied the treasury; in desperation, she married the powerful official who came to confiscate the house. Is the three-year agreement just a joke, or is it a fateful reunion after a long absence?
Shen Qingci, the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, was good at calculations, but because her stepmother framed her and her father was convicted, she fell from the clouds into a prison.
The moment the imperial edict was issued, she had already secretly transferred half of her property - this was her only life-saving bargaining chip. But she didn't expect that the person who came to ransack her home was actually the youngest powerful official in the dynasty, the King of Zhenbei, Lu Yan.
What's more, she didn't expect that this man would plead for her in the court, send people to protect her in the dark, and finally propose in public: "Marry me and I will save your life."
A deal in which each gets what he needs, an agreement to "reconcilate after finding out the truth in three years." Shen Qingci thought this was just a temporary measure, but he didn't know that Lu Yan had been looking for her for three years - starting from the "account settler" who anonymously helped him solve the military pay problem three years ago...
