Fated love, instinctive attraction, two strong leads who adore each other
Wen Ruan transmigrates into a book as the male lead's widowed sister-in-law, who is destined to be executed with a white silk cord.
To save her life, she decisively chooses to return to her family, leaving the romance between the male and female leads behind.
Who knew that a woman heading her own household would have to pay triple taxes, while matchmakers from the authorities would pester her to marry every day?
To avoid trouble and protect her loved ones, Wen Ruan promptly picks a fourth-rank Imperial Guard whose parents are both dead and marries him.
The Imperial Guard's rank is too low, so relatives from all sides rush to introduce her to better prospects.
But Wen Ruan has set her heart on him because he's handsome and can't have children.
Only after their wedding does she discover that the Imperial Guard is just a disguise. His true identity is her former fiance, Prince Jing Chen Yanci, the reigning emperor's younger brother.
He's also the book's major villain, destined to die for treason.
Want a divorce?
She can't bear to part with his looks, or with how devoted he is.
Then they'll have to fight fate together and rewrite their destinies.
