Wei Shuyu was born into nobility and had looked down on others since childhood.

Her father and brothers couldn’t bear to see her suffer, and repeatedly helped her husband advance. In just three years, he had risen to the third rank.
War broke out along the border, and her husband and father and brothers all had to leave for the battlefield.
She stood at the gate, tears in her eyes, bidding her husband farewell. But the man, usually so cold and aloof, brought a beautiful young woman forward from behind him.
