After her marriage with Jiao Zhongqing, the couple respected and loved each other, and their feelings were deep. Unexpectedly, the stubborn Jiao mother looked at her with displeasure, found fault with her in every way, and bullied Jiao Zhongqing to expel her. Jiao Zhongqing was forced by her mother's orders, but she had to persuade Lan Zhi to stay away from her family until she tried to take her home in the future.
when they break up, they swear that they will never lose each other. Who knows that after Lan Zhi returned to her mother's house, her fawning brother forced her to remarry the son of the satrap. Jiao Zhongqing rushed to the scene, and the two agreed to "meet each other under the grave". Finally, on the day when the satrap's son got married, both of them died of double suicide.
