share time: 2026-02-07 00:37:38

Shen Zhixia, an illegitimate daughter of the Prime Minister, is tricked into marrying Lord Ye Xiujin, the War King rumored to die before thirty, to "ward off misfortune". Everyone waits to see her fail, but she is actually a modern surgeon who traveled through time with medical knowledge. She not only cures Ye Xiujin's old illness with acupuncture but also helps him defuse court conspiracies and suppress border rebellions. The seemingly cold Ye Xiujin, however, had long seen her saving civilians during an incognito trip and secretly protected her many times. When Shen Zhixia thinks she is just using him for revenge, she discovers that the "misfortune-warding" marriage of this "King of Hell" is actually a deliberate plan—he had already fallen in love with her and just wanted to keep her by his side. From suspicion to sweet love, they rise together, finally ruling the kingdom and guarding each other's true hearts.
