Also known as "The Empty Boat Does Not Ferry"
At the foot of Longling Mountain stands a dilapidated imperial mausoleum. Legend says it has a guardian.
The guardian lives in seclusion in the village, with generations of his family making their living by farming. He never comes out unless summoned.
Ye Qingshan has a sweetheart in the village, the kind he's promised to marry one day.
His sweetheart is handsome, with refined features and a gentle disposition. Best of all, he's a disabled boy who uses a wheelchair.
Ye Qingshan doesn't mind at all. In fact, he thinks darkly: It's perfect. No one will compete with me for him, and I can lock him up in the house and have my way with him.
He even declares that, for the sake of that face alone, he'd be willing to support his sweetheart for the rest of his life.
Who could have known that one day a great upheaval would strike the imperial mausoleum? The emperor's personal guards gallop over on white horses, carrying long halberds, and respectfully summon the mausoleum guard and leader of the emperor's secret guards to receive an imperial decree and return to his post at once.
Then Ye Qingshan sees his usually kind and gentle sweetheart give a cool smile, calmly accept the decree, and transform into the emperor's foremost attack dog.
Remembering the boastful things he'd said, Ye Qingshan thinks: I can't win against him, but I can run away. I'm out of here.
He leaves for three years, completely unaware that behind him the floodwaters are rising, and someone has been searching for him for three years with red-rimmed eyes.
When they meet again, his former disabled sweetheart is sitting in a wheelchair. He smiles as he speaks, orders his people to block the road, and says with a smile more lovely than spring blossoms, "Why are you running? Didn't you say you'd lock me up? Are you taking it back?"
Later, Ye Qingshan realizes that he may have found himself one hell of a sweetheart.
Now there's no way for him to run, so he can only accept his fate.

Wen Yiliang unexpectedly transmigrates from the apocalypse. When he opens his eyes, he finds himself beneath a leaky, dilapidated thatched roof, lying on a cold, hard earthen bed, with a frail little child beside it, crying to be fed.
The house is bare, he has no money, and the food jar is almost empty. This family seems even worse off than he was in the apocalypse.
As he sits there in despair, a handsome young man comes to his door looking furious. Reluctantly, the young man says he wants to marry him.
???
Wen Yiliang was going to refuse, if the other man hadn't taken out fifty taels of silver right in front of him and slapped them on the table.
They agree that the marriage is only a temporary arrangement. After a year, the money and goods will be settled, and the two of them will divorce.
What kind of good fortune is this?
He gets to admire a beauty and take the money, so he agrees on the spot.
But before the year is up and they can divorce, the handsome young man's belly starts to grow.
The fake husband becomes a real sweetheart.
Now, no matter what anyone says, they can't get divorced. He'd rather die than divorce.
Holding his pregnant husband, who's making a scene about running away from home, Wen Yiliang secretly resolves: You're already married, so how dare you think of running?
