Princess Qixia is famous far and wide, but she's an orphan with no father or mother. Apart from her devoutly Buddhist maternal grandmother, everyone sees her as a big bone to gnaw on, eager to take a bite.
Sure enough, just after leaving Mount Wutai, she falls into the clutches of the scoundrel traveling with her. He shamelessly visits her room in the dead of night, acting as if he's possessed.
And yet he puts on an innocent face afterward.

Keep walking the dark roads at night, and you'll eventually run into a ghost. Even a righteous young marquis is no exception.
What should have been a simple errand escorting a noblewoman back to the capital turns into trouble for Lu Guiyuan, who is inexplicably ambushed and then finds himself unable to shake the woman who's latched onto him.
He swears that if he ever finds that arrogant bitch, he'll make her wish she were dead.
*
On their wedding night, Princess Qixia is abandoned in public by her husband, Consort Lu, and spends the night alone in her bridal chamber.
People crane their necks, waiting to see her divorce him.
But...
On the day of Qixi, Consort Lu strolls arm in arm with her and even lifts her skirt in public.
People crane their necks again, waiting for some sweet couple moments.
And then...
Princess Qixia divorces Consort Lu.
