    Everyone in the capital knows that the third young lady of the Liu family is as beautiful as a fairy and has a graceful figure. She is a delicate flower waiting to be sold at a high price. But after a complaint was filed and her uncle was taken to court, the reputation of "the fierce girl" spread throughout the streets, and her fiancé broke off the engagement without hesitation. From then on, no one dared to come to ask for marriage. On the other side, Chu Yan, the direct grandson of the eldest son of Duke Wei, was once a young general who amazed the capital and had a bright future. An accident left him disabled, his temperament became perverse and violent, and his fiancée ran away in fear. Who would have thought that these two people who were despised by everyone would actually make a marriage contract. Everyone shook their heads, feeling that one of the two was a fierce woman that no one wanted, and the other was a useless person, so they were considered a "good match". On the wedding night, Chu Yan, with a bit of frivolity and cruelty, joked: "I heard that Madam is a beauty, I came to see how beautiful she is?" Miss Liu smiled and responded gently: "My husband's eyes are as bright as stars, and I like his wife very much." The two parted unhappy. The ex-fiancé, cousin, and others were all waiting to see the joke about Miss Liu being beaten to death by Chu Yan. But they didn't expect that Miss Liu not only wasn't bullied, but with Chu Yan's connivance, she established a firm foothold in the mansion and even became a noble princess step by step. But Chu Yan, who had always acted recklessly, unexpectedly felt that "hep control" was a strict rule and obeyed Miss Liu's words.
