share time: 2025-11-03 06:01:14

Su Wanwan was meant to marry a merchant’s son, but a mix-up in wedding palanquins forced her to wed Gu Zhaoheng—a powerful minister rumored to die before 30. She planned to escape at night, only to discover Gu’s “sickness” was a lie: he practiced swordplay with a strong frame, defended her from her family’s debt collectors, and stood up to mocking noblewomen at palace banquets. As they grew closer, Su found this “dying minister” would secretly save osmanthus cakes for her and fight for women’s right to do business. Gu, in turn, rediscovered his will to live because of her. When rumors called her “unlucky” or “ambitious,” Gu carried her to the imperial court and declared to all officials: “My wife deserves to be envied by everyone in the capital.” Together, they overcame political schemes and became the capital’s most adored couple.
