Cinnabar Ember: The Red Makeup of Overthrowing the Kingdom tells the story of Yun Xiu, an orphan from the former dynasty who was burdened with a blood feud. She disguised herself as the stunning beauty "Su Wan" and sneaked into the palace of the enemy's country, vowing to overthrow the enemy's kingdom. Xiao Che, the powerful regent with a cold-blooded and iron fist, is not only the cornerstone of the empire, but also the culprit of the destruction of her homeland. In a well-designed encounter, she became the most stunning piece in his chess game, but he became the most powerful obstacle and accident on her way to revenge.
The deep palace is like the sea, and the power is like a knife. She is struggling between false love and sincerity, and he is swinging between country and beauty. Love and hatred are intertwined, and use and betrayal are on the same track. Step by step, the two of them are heading towards the already doomed road. She thought that by burning everything she could, she could finally avenge her country's shame, and he thought that by controlling the overall situation, he would be able to protect the cinnabar in his heart. As everyone knows, when the chess game ends and everyone disperses, they are all the people in the game. When the truth is torn apart and love is burned out, only the mountains and rivers are left alone, and the long night is like ashes...
This is a game in the name of love, an obsession that begins with hatred, and eventually becomes a love song that overwhelms the country and the city, and is heart-breakingly cruel.
