The daughter of the Qin family was sold into slavery after her family fell into decline. She was renamed Qingzhi and became the maid of Miss Ye Mingzhu of the Ye family.
The Ye family had been greatly favored by the Lin family, but when the Lin family was in trouble, they regretted their marriage and abandoned their righteousness, humiliating Lin Zhao, the orphan of the Lin family. Five years later, Lin Zhaozhong became the champion in martial arts and was granted the title of Marquis of Xiping. He returned with old hatred and forced Ye Mingzhu to become a concubine in the Marquis's mansion. Qingzhi, as a dowry maid, also entered the Hou Mansion.
On their wedding night, Lin Zhao did not touch Ye Mingzhu, but took Qingzhi away. From then on, Qingzhi became Lin Zhao's pawn in revenge against the Ye family, and became the person Ye Mingzhu hated the most.
