Chen Zhaoyu lost her mother when she was young. She was taken care of by the Xie family and was raised by her mother. She grew up with the only son of the Xie family who was five years older than her. When he was 8 years old, Chen Zhaoyu returned to the border with his father, and the two began to pass letters to Hongyan for several years.
After years of correspondence, Xie Heng had already quietly fallen in love with her. Later, due to the war, the two lost contact for five months. He fully understood his true feelings and even deceived his father to go to the border in person.
Four years later, Xie Heng saw Ah Zhao, who used to only know how to play and play, transformed into a strong-willed general's daughter who cared about her family and country. The hazy good feeling in my heart that originated from the exchange of letters completely settled, landed, and took root.
Even though he knew that A Zhao was young and had only trust in him as a brother and sister, he still relied on her trust in him to deliberately induce her in roundabout ways and coax her into entering into a marriage contract with him. Since then, he has been suffering day and night, feeling guilty for this agreement that was not an honest one.
As the wedding day approaches, Xie's family collapses overnight. Xie Heng is tortured by castration, falling from being the number one scholar who won three yuan in a row to being a prisoner. A Zhao also suffers from post-war depression and is tortured.
One is trapped in the humiliation of a mutilated body, and the other suffers from the trauma of war and suffers day and night. In a desperate situation, the two rely on each other to save each other.
While struggling to survive in the treacherous court, the two of them cared about the people's livelihood and the country. Together they cleared the salt tax, managed water transportation, paid stolen money, verified land taxes, and weathered many hardships together.
Purpose: Don't let suffering compromise your original intention, don't let love shackle your way forward, awaken your responsibility to the common people in the mire of suffering, and use your little power to relieve the suffering of the people.
