In the warm spring of March, a foreign girl lived in a dilapidated river house in Yuxian County, with an alluring appearance that was unforgettable.
There was a rumor somewhere that Yuan Yue wanted to find a good family in the prosperous Yu County to be entrusted with her for the rest of her life.
For a time, more than a dozen matchmakers came to propose marriage, but Yuan Yue declined them all.
The next day, I saw her sitting under the Immortal Bridge, paying ten cents a piece, painting portraits of passers-by.
Passers-by on the bridge stopped one after another, not looking at the spring scene but at her.
The matchmaker patted her thigh to persuade her: "Why come here when the wind and sun are blowing? You can obviously make a living on your face!"

Wen Ren was the son of the chief minister. He was handsome and was favored by the princess of the dynasty. However, he was unwilling to be the consort and insisted on returning to his hometown to take care of his sick grandfather.
Insiders secretly discussed: This dude dislikes the princess for being ugly, and ignores his official career and the Wen family's reputation, and runs away to hide from the marriage. It is really difficult for him to become a great person!
When he first met the scheming and eloquent female painter, Wen Ren thought she was being artificial just to increase her worth and marry into a wealthy family.
Until I watched her go from being a street painter to Yue Lin Tower, and firmly occupying the position of the number one painter in Yu County.
……………………
Ten years ago, Yuan Yue's whole family was wiped out, and she was the only one who managed to escape.
She vaguely remembered that the murderer had a black mole on his chin.
She practiced painting skills hard and wanted to paint everyone in Yu County, find out the real murderer, and kill the enemy with her own hands.
………………
On the Lantern Festival, in the painted boat in the middle of the lake, two hours passed...
Only a few clusters of fireworks fell from Yuan Yue's pen. Facing the idle young man sitting opposite him, his usual smiling face could no longer hold on, "Young Master Wen invited me here, what exactly do you want to draw?"
Wen Ren gently hugged her shoulders and turned to face a large bronze mirror—
"The two people in the painting mirror match each other perfectly. I will help you get revenge."
