In the last years of Dajing, wars broke out everywhere. In order to protect themselves, the Wen family of a prominent family in the south of the Yangtze River married off their legitimate daughter Wen Ruanyuan to Xiao Che, the eldest son of the Xiao family, the overlord of Shuofang. A marriage contract pushed the talented Wen Ruan into the whirlpool of iron-blooded intrigues - her husband Xiao Che was the "General Cold Halberd" who frightened the enemies, and he was also a contractual husband with whom she had never met.
The wind blew sand and dust into the red gate. In the "dangerous city" of Xiao Mansion, Wen Ruan dealt with the family's survival and power struggles with his weak body. She was used to seeing the bloodstains on Xiao Che's armor, and she also glimpsed the loneliness behind his cold and hard mask; he despised the marriage plan, but was inadvertently moved by her tenacity and talent.
When Jiangnan's old dream collides with Shuofang's iron hoof, and when the shackles of the contract gradually crack, the two go from respecting each other like "ice" to secretly falling in love, but are forced to alienate due to cunning intrigues and old grudges. He is her only support in troubled times, and she is the only softness under his cold halberd. Is this marriage in the name of "Kouyu" a transaction of power or a fateful redemption? Before the smoke dissipates, can they break through the confusion in people's hearts, warm the cold, and open each other's frozen hearts?
