Fengyu loved gold, silver, and jewels more than anything. Her greatest dream was to eat, drink, and enjoy life as a salted fish. Her fiancé was the third-ranked scholar in the imperial exams, handsome as the legendary Pan An. Her salted fish life was perfectly complete.

Her husband was poor? No problem, she was rich!

But who would have thought that the winds of fate would shift, causing her soul to transmigrate into the body of Xie Xun, a dashing and rebellious young marquis, even making him lose a leg due to her. To survive on the battlefield, the salted fish had to turn over and rise, learning horseback riding, archery, and military strategy. The young marquis, bearing her face, caused chaos everywhere. Her fiancé, deeming her wild and foolish, broke off their engagement.

She got engaged, and he reneged. She made money, and he squandered it. Her mountains of gold and silver were all emptied by him, and the two became locked in a love-hate relationship. Gradually, the plot started to go off the rails.

The ex-fiancé, after breaking off the engagement, regretted it and confessed his deep love.

Fengyu: I've already fallen for someone else.

A scheming girl at the archery range tried to kill her, only for Fengyu to stab herself instead.

Fengyu: What to do now? It looks like you've committed murder.

Her parents, who had defended the borders for decades, returned home only to say, "Daughter, go follow the young marquis and start a rebellion!"

How did the originally carefree salted fish storyline turn into one of a villain rising?

In the end…

Raising a husband turned out to be a money pit, but the husband was certainly worth it!

A sickly schemer hiding their true nature (Fengyu) vs. A dashing but cunning strategist (Xie Xun)


Xie Jue sneered coldly, "After Zhixu and I regrouped in Zhongzhou, on the way back to the city, he told me about Yuwen Jing using poison on Ayu. Ayu is unharmed, but he suspected Yuwen Jing might be bluffing. Yet I couldn't take the risk because I know how bizarre and unpredictable these poisons can be. So, after returning to the Capital City, I had Ying Si and others watching you. Your food, clothing, shelter, and movements—I know them all like the back of my hand. During this time, your diet has noticeably changed, specifically requesting numerous broths that replenish qi and blood. You're Beiman, with a strong preference for alcohol, beef, and lamb; when it comes to soups, you only favor beef and lamb broth and dislike sweets. But lately, your menu features many sweet soups. You claim the dates in Capital City are delicious, even bought ten-some pounds to store at the courier station. Such a sudden change in dietary habits must have a reason, right?"
