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)


The emperor and empress's wedding is a cause for celebration across the realm. Not only does Xie Xun receive marital leave, but the Capital City imposes no curfew for five consecutive days, bringing the night market to life in a bustling atmosphere. Filled with energy, Xie Xun clings to Fengyu dearly in their newlywed days, yet he understands her fatigue and does not act out excessively, letting her rest for over an hour while accompanying her to sleep. Fengyu wakes from slumber to find Xie Xun rousing her, his face and neck brushing against hers. The late autumn chill makes their close embrace all the more warm and comfortable. Laughingly evading Xie Xun's kisses, Fengyu finds herself met with his smiling pursuit of her lips. He gently pries them open and engages in a passionate kiss that stirs her emotions, yet she is too sore to indulge in his playfulness.
