In the Great Jing Dynasty, Princess Shen Zhaozhao—the most fierce and chivalrous lady in the capital—had just taught a lesson to the arrogant daughter of the British Duke when she received an imperial edict: she was to marry Gu Heng, the Shizi of the Gu Prince's Mansion, who was rumored to be "cursed with an early death and unable to live past twenty". Everyone in the capital waited to laugh at her for marrying a "dying man", but Gu Heng clung to her like sticky candy: passing lilies in the morning court, sending nourishing soup at noon, even crouching with a medicine jar while she practiced swordplay. Zhaozhao was so annoyed she wanted to throw his jar away—until a night attack by assassins revealed this "sickly man" could fight ten men alone, and had secretly uncovered the truth about her mother's wrongful death. When she demanded, "How many secrets have you hidden?", Gu Heng pulled out half a jade pendant with red eyes: "Ten years ago in the mass grave, you gave me your only bun and took a knife for me. I survived just to marry you."
