Power and sex are fragrant

Thirteen years ago, the Shen family was massacred, and the surviving orphan, Shen Shuyao, transformed into a courtesan, plotting revenge. Gu Shijin, ordered to raid the family's property, recognized an old friend and feigned a marriage alliance, forming a pact with her to overturn the verdict. Their wedding night was fraught with turmoil: Shen Shuyao fell into the water, Gu Shijin was seriously injured, and the two walked on thin ice under the relentless pressure from Crown Prince Wei Jinxiao. She had no choice but to feign affection for the Crown Prince, using her body to shield him from harm in exchange for his trust, only to be discovered by the Crown Princess while sowing discord by the water. Gu Shijin once again came to the rescue, subtly planting the seeds of further suspicion. A three-way power struggle raged, and the truth behind the wrongful conviction from years ago slowly began to surface.
