The frustrated Jiang Shiyuan decided to let go of the past and follow the arrangement of the imperial concubine and aunt to get married. The Pei family is the most powerful family in the capital. Jiang Shiyuan always thought that the person he was going to marry was Pei Ziye, the idle playboy of the Pei family. He thought that the two of them were similar in age and personality, and he also fantasized about how they could live in harmony after marriage. On the day they met, it was Pei Che, the cold and dignified uncle of the Pei family who came in. This was beyond her expectation! Pei Che used to be Jiang Shiyuan's teacher, and he was very knowledgeable in the Pei family. This accidental misunderstanding made the story suddenly become super interesting. As the two got along, Pei Che was attracted by Jiang Shiyuan's liveliness and cuteness, and started a fierce competition for love. Jiang Shiyuan also gradually discovered his kindness while getting along with Pei Che, and their relationship gradually heated up. The character setting of this novel is very novel.

It is rumored that the prince of Chu State is blind and his internal organs are all weak and cannot survive the winter; and the princess who comes to marry is a weak waste who only knows how to cry. On the wedding night, an assassin sneaked in, and the princess was so frightened that she broke the tea cup, but the fragment happened to cut the assassin's throat. The prince weakly shrank into the bed, but the silver needle on his fingertip accidentally pierced the assassin's critical point. All civil and military officials in the court were waiting to see the joke of this short-lived couple. Until one dark and stormy night of a month, when the world's number one poison doctor Yaksha and the Lord of the Killer Pavilion, Yama, fought over the divine medicine and pulled off each other's masks, both of them fell silent. Chu Mochen approached with a low voice: "My dear concubine, your night clothes are much prettier than your phoenix crown and harem during the day." Yan Yunqi sneered and pointed out the poisonous needle: "Your Highness, you are not blind and you are constantly angry, it is much more pleasing to the eye than during the day!'" When the drama queen princess with a spike armor that rebounds ten times the physical attack, met the yandere boss who has power in the dark night, everyone in the capital was tricked into crying!
