During the Republican era, Wen Zhengqing favored his concubine over his lawful wife and sent his legitimate daughter, Wen Mian, to the countryside. Fifteen years later, eager to curry favor with the Military Governor’s residence, Wen Zhengqing plans a marriage alliance with the Qin family.
Rumor has it that the Governor’s second young marshal, Qin Taihe, is ruthless and violent—and that he has “played two wives to death” in succession. To secure the Governor’s support, Wen Zhengqing brings Wen Mian back from the countryside and marries her off to Qin Taihe.
After marrying Qin Taihe, Wen Mian leverages the Governor’s power to take revenge for her mother.
