On the day when his childhood sweetheart, General Chu Yiheng, made his triumphant return, thousands of people lined the streets to welcome him.
Princess Li Suining of Changle stood in the elegant room of Jinlin Pavilion and saw him and a figure in red riding a horse together. The woman was nestling in his arms.
She clenched the love pendant in her palm, with tears in her eyes: "Brother Ah Heng clearly said he wanted to marry me..."
But after Chu Yiheng returned to the court, he used his military exploits to report to His Majesty, broke his engagement with her, and married the woman in red instead. Unexpectedly, not long after, Chu Yiheng knelt in front of the main hall for another three days and three nights, insisting on begging the emperor to take back his order and grant him a new marriage to the princess.
At this time, in front of Li Suining, Pei Yan pulled off the guard's waistband and threw it on the ground. He said firmly: "Your Highness, I won the contest for marriage. Now, I am your husband."
On the wedding night in the red candle-lit room, Chu Yiheng lingered outside the princess's house.
Pei Yan tore his collar further open and brought a plate of peeled grapes to Li Suining.
"Princess, I want to taste it. I peeled it with my own hands."
