There are four great joys in life: finding water in a drought, reuniting with an old friend, achieving success in the imperial examinations, and a wedding night.

While most would be overjoyed, for Mo Shuihan, this is a disaster! Why? Because this "he" is not a "he" at all! Mo Shuihan is not a man, and how can they possibly consummate this marriage?

Song Xiangxue, known as the "First Beauty" of the Da Jing Dynasty, is the highly favored Ninth Princess, desired by countless men.
