In the winter of the sixth year of Jiachang, Marquis Jing'an, Di Yongning, was accused of treason and betraying the country. After burying 80,000 troops at the foot of Qingnan Mountain, he committed suicide out of fear of punishment. Emperor Jiachang, Han Zhongzhen, was furious and ordered the extermination of the Di clan. Prime Minister Jiang Yu and Marquis Loyalty and Righteousness, Gu Yunnian, were ordered to surround the imperial residence. Dozens of people were captured, and no one was spared. Just as Gu Yunnian was about to take action against Di Ziyuan, a voice saying "spare their lives" came closer and closer.

Prince Han Ye, following the testament left by the founder of the dynasty, used the reason of making Di Yongning's daughter, Di Ziyuan, his consort to successfully save her life. Since then, she would be imprisoned for life at the Daishan Yongning Temple. Although Han Ye treated Di Ziyuan sincerely, she knew well that she had become a guilty person and her entire family had been exterminated, leaving only herself. She believed that she would never have any intersection with Han Ye again.

Over the decades, Han Ye would meticulously prepare gifts and send them to Daishan every three months, even though he received no response. He continued to disobey the imperial decree and refused to take concubines, solely because he still had Di Ziyuan in his heart. He vowed not to marry anyone else. In order to bring Di Ziyuan down the mountain as soon as possible, Han Ye requested permission to lead a campaign against the pirates in Dongqian Sea. If he could achieve remarkable military feats, there might be a slight chance. The Minister of Justice, Luo Mingxi, seemed to be contemplating this matter but made no comment.

At the same time, the lord of Jingnan Anle Fort, Ren Anle, received news and traveled alone. She coincidentally encountered Han Ye, and his handsome appearance attracted her attention. During their time together, there were often teasing moments that made Han Ye feel flustered. Later, Ren Anle and Han Ye evaded capture together and took shelter on a black tent boat, drifting along with the waves. Ren Anle would occasionally make playful remarks and enjoy seeing Han Ye blush.

As they watched the calm sea, Han Ye was eager to return. However, he was not skilled at rowing and accidentally caused an oar blade to fall into the sea. Just as they were talking, several fleets of pirates approached. Ren Anle grabbed Han Ye and flipped the boat, hiding in the water. At that moment, she emphasized that if they could be saved, she would marry him.

At a critical moment, numerous boats from Anle Fort arrived. Han Ye didn't know Ren Anle's identity until now and was surprised to learn that she was the leader of a 30,000-strong naval force. Han Ye fought alongside Ren Anle and repelled the pirates. However, he was accidentally grazed by a poisoned arrow. Ren Anle publicly offered to treat his wounds, and the maidservants, Yuan Qin and Yuan Shu, couldn't help but gossip.

Because of this incident, Ren Anle adhered to the agreement and insisted on marrying Han Ye. Even after learning that Han Ye was the Crown Prince of Daijing, she wasn't surprised. On the contrary, she was willing to bring her 30,000 navy under the rule of the imperial court as her dowry to become the Crown Princess. Han Ye quickly refused, but Ren Anle took his jade pendant as a token of their love. A day later, she sent a letter to Emperor Jiachang, Han Zhong, expressing her clear stance.

Naturally, Han Zhong would not agree to let Ren Anle become the Crown Princess. He warned Han Ye to retract his thoughts. Neither the daughter of a criminal nor a water bandit from the border could qualify as a Crown Princess. Han Ye failed to obtain the Emperor's pardon for Di Ziyuan. With a heavy heart and no one to confide in, he came alone to the Ministry of Justice to find Luo Mingxi. Both of them couldn't picture each other's faces, but Luo Mingxi easily drew the eyes of Di Ziyuan, leaving Han Ye disappointed with those eyes when she left.

At the Spring Hunting Feast, numerous noble women were invited to attend, and they were all captivated by Han Ye at first sight. The news of the female water bandit seeking to marry the Crown Prince spread throughout the entire capital. Upon hearing this, the women scoffed, while men were curious about the appearance and courage of the bandit, speculating that she must be rough and extremely ugly. Only the Crown Prince's attendant, Wen Shuo, believed that she must be an outstanding beauty.

At that moment, a clear melody suddenly sounded, and Yuan Qin appeared, capturing the undivided attention of Wen Shuo. Before he could react, a woman in red riding a horse arrived, shooting two arrows and taking the lead, coming directly in front of Han Ye. Wen Shuo was shocked and quickly asked about her identity. The woman smiled and declared herself as Ren Anle, the one who would be the Crown Princess.
