In her previous life, Lan Jia, the illegitimate daughter of the Minister of Justice, took her elder sister's place and married Wen Ji, the Minister of Rites. But when she was implicated in a treason case, her entire family was executed.
As she was about to die, she saw her husband smile at her from the executioner's platform. "If there's another life, let me protect you this time."
Reborn, Lan Jia clutches her marriage contract and just wants to run away, but Wen Ji, who has also retained his memories, corners her atop a wall.
"My lady, where are you off to?"
On their wedding night, she holds a dagger to him and demands to know the truth about the treason case. He draws her into his arms. "There was no treason. But for you, why shouldn't I commit it?"
She plays frail while investigating the old case that destroyed her family. In public, he is icy; in private, he turns into a fiercely protective husband. He finds evidence for her, takes a blade for her whenever danger strikes, and even leaves the Minister of Justice speechless in her defense.
When the conspiracy behind the Nine Ministers' trial is exposed, Lan Jia finally understands: the "treason" in her previous life was nothing but a frame-up.
This time, she and her "rebel" husband will overturn this filthy court together!
