The Minister of Rites, Xie Xuan, favored his concubine over his wife, leading to the death of his legitimate wife, Lin Wan, who left behind a daughter named Xie Qingyan. It wasn't until the day Xie Qingyan was betrothed to Huo Wuming from the Huo family that fate took a dramatic turn. The Huo family was in mourning for their general, Huo Xiao, and the red of the wedding clashed with the white of the funeral. Suddenly, a strange voice and word appeared, foretelling that Xie Qingyan's husband would betray her and that she would meet a miserable end. Xie Qingyan indeed witnessed Huo Wuming's affair with Xie Jiaojiao. However, she refused to believe that her destiny was set in stone. She immediately exposed the scandalous affair between Huo Wuming and Xie Jiaojiao.
