The heir of the Chen Duke's mansion defected to the enemy and betrayed her country, then fled, leaving the rest of the Chen family in the capital as targets for everyone's hostility.
The Fourth Imperial Daughter, Yin Shu, entered the Imperial Academy and caught sight of a young man who had once been noble and composed, now cornered and mocked by his classmates. His expression was calm, as if he were unmoved by the mounting malice. Only when ink was spilled over his books did he frown.
For three generations, the daughters of the Chen Duke's mansion had laid down their lives for their country. Their loyalty had been beyond question, yet one person's betrayal had ruined it all and implicated the innocent.
Moved by compassion, the Fourth Imperial Daughter stepped in and put a stop to the people who had come looking for trouble.
When she turned around, she saw the young man staring at her with dark eyes. "Your Highness shouldn't have helped me."
Yin Shu assumed he was ashamed of being the younger brother of a traitor. She replied indifferently, "What have books done to deserve this?"
She didn't know that this was a warning from a coldhearted man.
Not long after, at a banquet, she drank a cup of drugged tea. As heat coursed through her body and she was on the verge of losing control, the last thing she saw was that young man, waiting quietly behind a screen.
The Chen Duke's mansion was in decline and badly needed a powerful family alliance. She had considered the possibility, but she never imagined the other party would be audacious enough to set their sights on her.
Yin Shu's hand landed on the young man's neck. She wanted to squeeze, but another wave of heat swept over her, and her hand slid down to his collar instead.

Yin Shu was forced into marriage.
Just before she was about to propose to the childhood friend she loved.
