Han scholar Lin Chuan (played by Chen Chuhuan) marries Ye Qinghuan (played by Cai Kaidi), the naive yet smart daughter of a wealthy merchant, to save his terminally ill mother. What begins as a transactional marriage grows into love when Qinghuan secretly raises money for his imperial exam and shields him from family mockery. But on the eve of his journey to the capital, the truth about his mother's death surfaces—it was the Ye family who killed her to seize a business route! Torn between his beloved wife and his mother's vengeance, Lin is in agony. Worse, a rival has laid a trap to ruin his exam forever. Struggling in grudges and dilemmas, can their love—trapped by hatred and fate—survive until they reach the peak of life together?
