On the night of the house raid, Shen Zhiwei was transformed from the legitimate daughter of a servant into the daughter of a criminal official. If she did not marry within three days, she would be sent to a monastery. Wearing a prison uniform, she knocked on the door of the poor scholar Pei Yanshu: "Marry me, and I will support your family, earn your living, and send you to a wealthy family." Everyone laughed. A rich man in trouble and a scholar from a poor family were just two puddles of mud hugging each other. But she refused to accept her fate.
She recovered the money for the land deed and medicine for the Pei family, revitalized the shabby bookstore, and protected him from the provincial examination to the court. She also found out in the old accounts that the man behind the Shen family was actually hidden among the high-ranking officials he was about to join. This time, she not only wanted to accompany him to become the first assistant, but also wanted to overturn the case for the Shen family and make her enemies pay with blood.
