Cang Xuan, the Chief Minister of the Great Chu, is in everyone's eyes an unmistakable treacherous villain; rumor has it he has slain countless people, uses divination to beguile the sovereign, and everyone longs to see him removed. 　　But one day, people discovered he had acquired a persistent little shadow at his heels—the simple-minded Miss Su Yuanyuan of the Yong Duke's household had actually latched onto him! 　　To drink, she follows; to court, she follows; to the pleasure house, she even follows… 　　At his wit's end, Cang Xuan pressed a sword to her throat: "Keep pestering me again, and I'll kill you." 　　Instead, she hugged him and cheerfully said, "Let me marry you, and I won't pester you anymore." 　　Cang Xuan swept his sleeves and left, his ears burning red: "Impossible to reason with!" 　　But later, when he truly went to the Duke's mansion with betrothal gifts to propose, he was rejected by her. She apologized to him with a face full of regret: "Sorry, I mistook the person who saved my life."
