It is rumored that Xiao Yanzhi, the prince of the East Palace, is ruthless and decisive in killing. He is the living king of hell that everyone fears. When he asked to marry Shen Qingci, the Grand Tutor's granddaughter, everyone in the capital sighed - that frail and sickly girl from the Shen family might not survive the third day of the wedding.
No one knows that this marriage started with a glimpse at a spring banquet five years ago. Under the cold face of His Royal Highness, there is a heart that has been secretly promised for five years. And the seemingly frail Shen Qingci was not the sickly beauty in the eyes of the world.
She has been wearing a mask for many years, just waiting for someone to take it off.
This is the story of a pretender meeting a true lover. The palace is like a tiger's den, but this time, it was never her who fell into his trap - it was him who had laid a net for five years just to hold her in his arms.
