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)


After Xie Jue got a lead, he promptly arranged for personnel to investigate the entire Royal Palace Inner Hall. Xie Jue did not know when Fang Chuning had left the palace, so he could only send people to investigate the Forbidden Army guarding the Royal Palace at that time. In fact, this was very difficult to trace. After the Ningzhou Iron Cavalry withdrew from the Royal Palace, although the Forbidden Army was in charge of guarding it, people were panicked at that time, and a batch of Forbidden Army had died, replaced by another batch, mixed with loyalists and traitors, making it hard to distinguish them. Whether someone infiltrated and then let others leave was also unclear, and moreover, there were too many people coming and going in the Royal Palace. Many palace maids and inner servants felt that their future was perilous and chose to flee. Han Ziqi was considered kind-hearted and agreed to let them leave the palace, making it difficult to check everyone who was coming and going.
