Yufeng, a daughter of a down-and-out official family, had her father framed by an adulterer and her parents died. She was forced to leave her sister Jinfeng and sell herself to bury her parents. After that, Yufeng became the maid of the Prince in the west of the city and the companion of Wang Lin'er, the young master of the Prince's house. The two of them had been together for a long time, and they developed a love for the young master.
Excerpt: In the early morning, the breeze blew gently at the willows, and also at Yufeng's face, which turned slightly red. He held her hand, his eyes full of smiles: "Yufeng, I want to marry you! Will you marry me?"
…
But the lady's words were like a thunderbolt from the blue: "Yufeng, you are just a little slave of this house. If you want to marry my son, there is no way! Lin'er has already been engaged. He will not marry you, and neither will I!... You are not worthy... You are not worthy..."
Everything is about to begin...
