A marriage decree pointed out the most inconspicuous concubine of the Shen family to the eldest grandson of Duke Anguo.
Everyone in the capital said they were a perfect match - one was dull and taciturn, the other was a fighting cock lackey.
Shen Heng didn't care. She has been hiding for fourteen years, hiding under a dull mask, hiding another surname and another set of bones. Marrying a dandy is safer than being found out.
Lu Zheng didn't care either. He pretended to be a playboy for seven years, pretending to be the biggest joke in the capital. No one was guarding against a loser - and no one knew, he had been investigating the cause of his father's death.
On the wedding night, he put his arm around her shoulders, but she turned away. The red candle burned until dawn, and no one came near.
Later he found out that she bought a bouquet of white chrysanthemums every May 23rd.
She found out that his father died in prison, the presiding officer was changed, and the person who replaced him died in a shipwreck.
Two hidden lines run parallel in the dark, pointing to the same enemy.
He said: You don't need a reason to stay here.
She said: I had no intention of leaving.
From concubine to legitimate wife, from disguise to joining forces. This marriage was not a coincidence from the beginning.
