Synopsis

Fan Changyu, a butcher's daughter, and Xie Zheng, a fallen noble, run into each other in a snowstorm. The orphaned Changyu wants to become the family head, while Zheng needs to go incognito to avenge a blood feud from seventeen years ago. Each with their motives, they stage a marriage of convenience that blossoms into true love.

However, by a cruel twist of fate, war forces them apart. She ventures into the battlefield with her butcher's knife, searching for her family, her husband, and justice; while he, now restored to his former status as a powerful noble, protects his country, his love, and the truth. Reunited on the battlefield, the two join forces to uncover the truth, fearless of death and undaunted by authority. Finally, they return home, staying true to their original vision.
