The story begins in Lianxiang Tower in Baiyu City, which was the wedding night of the city lord Yin Ji.However, amidst the joy and laughter in the city, Yin Ji secretly trampled on his vow to another woman, Xie Yun.He raped Xie Yun and cruelly ordered her to recount every detail of her wedding night as she watched with tears in her eyes.
Yin Ji's wife, Xiao Baobao, held a hairpin and searched from room to room, trying to find any abnormalities on their wedding night.When she broke into the room, she only saw Yin Ji sitting by the bed, as if everything was just her illusion.However, she didn't know that Xie Yun had quietly left the humiliating room and walked into the heavy snow alone.
Yin Ji sent someone to bring him clothes, hoping to make up for the harm he had done to Xie Yun, but Xie Yun firmly refused.She got into a carriage with a group of rabbits, her heart filled with anger and disappointment towards Yin Ji.Tomorrow, she will leave this place that once made her heartache. She doesn't want to be controlled by Yin Ji anymore.
Looking back four years, Yin Ji and Xie Yun were lovers who loved each other deeply.However, a sudden change changed their love beyond recognition.Xie Yun was accused of having an affair with Yin Qi, was stigmatized and was exiled from his family.During the days of exile, Xie Yun and her mother suffered greatly until Yin Ji appeared.
Yin Ji kept Xie Yun as a slave for three years as punishment for her.He promised to let her go after three years, but Xie Yun could only endure the humiliation silently in order to see his family as soon as possible.She carved the days on her bedside every day, looking forward to the passage of time and looking forward to leaving this hell as soon as possible.
However, when the day of departure finally came, Xiao Baobao was full of hostility towards Xie Yun.She thought Xie Yun was using his status to seduce Yin Ji and wanted to make her look good.Faced with Xiao Baobao's provocation, Xie Yun finally couldn't bear it anymore. She fought back against Xiao Baobao, but was stopped by Yin Ji.
Yin Ji asked Xie Yun why he left the bracelet, but Xie Yun had no intention of explaining.She gave her love token to the maid and let it be exchanged for some money, because she knew that this thing had no meaning to her now.
At the last moment of leaving, Xiao Baobao once again provoked Xie Yun and mentioned her family.Xie Yun was angry and was about to slap her, but was stopped by Yin Ji.Xie Yun also hit Xiao Baobao with his backhand. Yin Ji threw the bracelet to the ground in anger, hung the token on Xie Yun's chest, and gave her time to close the city gate and leave.
Xiao Baobao did not give up. She picked up her bow and arrow and aimed at Xie Yun.Although Yin Ji wanted to stop it, he finally allowed Xiao Baobao's behavior.The arrow shot through Xie Yun's arm, knocking her hairpin to the ground.Xie Yun ran towards the gate with all her strength. This was her only chance to leave.
