The only daughter of the richest man is trapped in a painting, while her parents believe she has gone missing and search for her desperately.
The greatest fortune-teller gives them two words: a wedding to bring good fortune.
Even with their daughter missing, they want a man of exceptional talent and virtue to be her husband. He'll have to marry a memorial tablet and become a widower without ever having seen his bride.
The richest man sets his sights on the Shen family's genius sword cultivator, the elder brother. Driven by the promise of wealth, the elders want to use him for the wedding, but his mother falls to her knees in front of him, the family's good-for-nothing, and weeps...
A switcheroo worthy of The Prince and the Pauper: he puts on the wedding clothes and marries into the Bai family, carrying Bai Qianluo's memorial tablet.
On their wedding night, just after he has offered three sticks of incense to the tablet, his wife's portrait speaks up in confusion. "Who are you? Why are you in my room?"
He sucks in a breath. "Looks like I drank too much today. Now even portraits are talking."

There's also a sickly-looking handsome man in the room.
She sucks in a breath too. She's still trapped in a painting, and already she has a husband.
This husband seems to be an unlucky fellow forced into a wedding to bring good fortune to someone else. Even inside the painting, he's already making trouble. "Let's work together. Help me get out of the painting, and I'll make sure you live in wealth and splendor even after we divorce."
Her hapless husband wipes away nonexistent tears. "Wife, are you already going to abandon your husband and child?"
Theme: Even in danger, keep pushing through the fog to find the truth.
