When Xin Mei was one month old, a celestial seer cast her fate: A most peculiar destiny-her matrimonial star flickers between solid and ethereal. Her future husband shall be neither fully man nor fully ghost, and hers is a fate that should bring ill upon her spouse.
At sixteen, Xin Mei heard that one could buy a bride with gold-so why not a husband too?
Thus, she set out with a troupe of spirit beasts and a purse heavy with coin, determined to purchase herself a groom.
She stormed imperial tombs, crossed the peaks of Mei Mountain, weathered heavenly tribulations, and even paused to enjoy an opera or two. The world was vast and full of wonders, and Xin Mei was eager to see them all.
Then, by chance, she stumbled upon a Mirror of Shared Hearts-and in its reflection, she saw herself locked in an embrace with her nemesis, the fierce cavalry general Lu Qianqiao.
She, ever willful; he, bound by the same fate. A perfect match, foreordained.
This grand dream, hazy and boundless, unfolded like scenes painted upon her eyelids.
Yet upon waking, they found themselves beneath golden winds and dewdrops, a pair destined to meet-a love surpassing all mortal tales.
辛湄满月时，仙人批命：命格奇特，命中红鸾有半实半虚之态，未来夫婿乃半人半鬼，应是克夫之相。
辛湄十六岁时，听闻媳妇可以花钱买到，想来相公也是可以买的。
于是她领着一群灵兽，带着鼓鼓囊囊的钱包出门买相公去了。
闯皇陵、遇眉山，渡天劫、听戏曲。世间的风云诡谲，辛湄都想瞧上一瞧。
无意撞见的同心镜，却映出了辛湄和冤家骠骑将军陆千乔相拥的画面。
一个自娇嗔，一个同命抗。本为佳配，自有情定。
这场大梦，昏昏然不觉身之所在，历历梦中景。
待梦醒处，金风玉露，佳偶天成，恰应相逢，胜却人间无数。
