The female lead, Chu Zhirou, was initially devoted to her fiancé, even spending seven years supporting him. However, after he passed the imperial examination, he immediately broke off the engagement and tried to marry someone else. Chu Zhirou was not one to be trifled with and promptly kicked the mother and son out. She intended to focus on raising her younger brother and rebuilding the General's Mansion, but fate intervened, drawing her into a new crisis. In this predicament, Chu Zhirou reluctantly chose to marry the (wan ku, meaning a spoiled, dissolute young nobleman) Marquis Xu Zhouye. When this news spread, the entire capital watched her become a laughingstock, as a rebellious old maid and a good-for-nothing playboy seemed like an unlikely match. But who could have imagined that Chu Zhirou would turn the tables and start a "dog-training literature" (a metaphor for a woman who is out of her element)? The young marquis, intending to give his fiancée a hard time, was instead beaten for climbing over a wall and completely subdued. Afterwards, it was as if his inner potential had been unlocked; he passed the imperial examinations with flying colors after their marriage, rising rapidly through the ranks to become a high-ranking official. Moreover, he became utterly devoted to his wife, a complete henpecked husband. Those who had previously mocked him were all proven wrong. The scumbag who broke off the engagement was filled with regret, shamelessly begging for forgiveness after divorcing the princess, only to be met with the young marquis's powerful retort: ​​"I broke your shovel, and you still dare to steal my fiancée!"

    "Your Highness, your affection for me is tinged with the hatred from your mother. Love mixed with hatred is not worth my gamble. I have never wanted to compete with a woman for my husband, whether she is his wife, concubine, or mother. I feel such a struggle is meaningless." "From a young age, I have always considered myself strong. I firmly believe that my battlefield, Song Yuheng's battlefield, is the border. My enemies are not women, but the invaders and villains who violate my territory and harm my people. I should fight for my country and for justice. I shouldn't waste my limited energy scheming against women for a man." She bowed slightly. "So, Your Highness, thank you for your misplaced affection, but I think it's not worth it."
