After falling into the water, Shen Yiheng had many bizarre and fantastical dreams.
She dreamed that the emperor would arrange her marriage to Fu Jue, the powerful chief minister.
All the noble young ladies in the capital envied her good fortune.
But only Shen Yiheng knew that Fu Jue was cold and unfeeling, a stone that could never be warmed.
Then the Shen family fell into disgrace, and Shen Yiheng begged Fu Jue to help her family.
Fu Jue agreed, and casually told her that her half-sister would be moving into the residence the next day, so she should vacate her courtyard.
Only then did Shen Yiheng realize that Fu Jue had always wanted to marry her half-sister, Shen Yuyao.
The agony of dying from poison in her dream had felt far too real. Shen Yiheng decided she never wanted to have anything to do with Fu Jue again.
Fu Jue was reborn.
He knew that in the future, he would become the youngest chief minister in the dynasty.
He also knew that in three days, someone would injure his eyes and abandon him in the snow. When he was at his wits' end, a woman would come to his rescue, care for him attentively, and secretly take him to have his eyes treated.
Unfortunately, in his previous life, he mistook someone else for her. He only came to his senses after it was too late to make things right.
Now that he had another chance, he decided to make amends for the mistakes of his past life.
That day, Fu Jue put on a set of tattered clothes, covered his eyes with white cloth, and fell in the back courtyard of the Shen residence.
Just as the cold was about to numb him into unconsciousness, the door finally opened.
He heard Shen Yiheng say, “Throw him farther away. If he's going to die, he can do it somewhere other than my doorstep. What an ill omen!”
