On the eve of the reigning princess's wedding, her future consort was still languishing in prison. It seemed even Heaven could not bear to see him separated from his intended bride. A sudden prison break accidentally freed the innocent consort, who was then delivered, through a twist of fate, into the hands of the person who had planned the escape.
The consort was glad to be rid of it all. After all, if he had not been backed by the Zheng clan of Xingyang, and if he had not witnessed his fiancée suffer undeserved misfortune because she was engaged to him, the entire Lu clan of Fanyang would not have been brought down by the emperor. The consort would not have held out and fought to the death until last night, only to be locked away in prison so they could hear him beg for mercy.
At least none of it had anything to do with him now. Let Zheng Fengsang, the consort, die in that prison break. The man who remained now was simply called Feng, with no family name and no one left to care about...
What he did not know was that the person who had planned the prison break was none other than his fiancée, Lu Xiuzhi, who had died long ago.
Lu Xiuzhi could not understand why a match between equal families, the will of their parents, and the matchmaker's word could not outweigh a single declaration of love from the most precious pearl under Heaven: "I love him." Then her future husband was handed over to someone else, and to make sure the new match had a spotless background, the emperor had to wipe out the Lu family and the entire Fanyang Lu clan.
Fortunately, there was still a way out. She had offered up everything she had and finally won a chance to avenge herself. This prison break was only the most inconspicuous beginning.
Lu Xiuzhi firmly believed that if she headed west, all the way to the western frontier, and found the most important treasure, she would get everything she wanted and have her revenge on those who deserved it.
And so, these two people, who should not have been sharing a bed and dreaming different dreams until the seven-year itch, set off toward the lands of the Western Yi together, concealing their names and identities...
