The father and daughter set the criteria for selecting a son-in-law, and after screening at all levels, they selected Gu Yanzhi, the lone minister who had gained power at the age of twenty-three. The imperial edict granted marriage, and everyone in the city knew that Gu Yanzhi was taciturn and not approachable to women. They were respectful and distant from each other at the beginning of their marriage. There were frequent turmoils in the court, and the Queen Mother and the Zheng family repeatedly set up troubles. Shen Nianqing was smart and courageous, and worked together with her husband to break the situation. Gu Yanzhi gradually developed feelings for her and gave up his aloofness to give her his preference.
