Xie Mingtang married into the Marquis of Jing'an for three years, but was treated coldly by her husband, chastised by her mother-in-law, and humiliated by Bai Yueguang. On the day of the divorce, Pei Wang, the madly criticized eldest son of the Prince Regent, came to the house with his three-year-old breast milk in his arms, revealing the truth that her "died" child was still alive.
From this, Xie Mingtang left the Hou Mansion, took back the dowry, traced the truth behind the kidnapping, liquidated Shen Wanrou and the Hou Mansion, revived the Xie family, and investigated the old case of his father and brother's death in battle. Pei Wang protected her all the way, but did not take away the initiative for her. The two gradually established trust and feelings while investigating cases, protecting cubs, and taking revenge.
Gu Chengan went from being conceited and indifferent to regretful. Seeing Xie Mingtang transform from an abandoned wife of the Marquis to the quasi-concubine of the Prince Regent, he could never look back.
In the end, the Xie family's old case was overturned, the Hou Mansion fell, Shen Wanrou was liquidated, Pei Wang's poison was cured, Xie Mingtang and Pei Wang got married, and they walked towards their real home holding their mother's hand year by year.
