Capturing a Soaring Swan

In the twenty-seventh year of the Tianwu era, supplies ran out at the front lines, the Crown Prince died in battle, and three hundred grain transport soldiers were executed beneath the banners.

In the twenty-ninth year of the Tianwu era, Xie Wuyi, the daughter of a convicted rebel, seeks the truth, holding an eerie butterfly between her fingers as she steps through the flames, one step at a time. But she doesn't expect the absurd Prince Xiao Wei, who crosses her path, to hand her a marriage contract.

She poses as a witch, solves mysteries, and dismantles mechanisms... They agreed to divorce once the truth came to light, but the more they investigate the Crown Prince's death, the more chilling it becomes. What's more, Xie Wuyi discovers that Xiao Wei seems to have his own agenda.

"Your Highness, when does this marriage contract expire?"

"My lady, put down my contract of indenture. Let's talk this over."
