She has two identities: He Qingning, the eldest daughter of the He family, and an assassin of Yan Palace.
In her previous life, she died at the hands of Xing Gong An Ye Bei. Reborn, all she wants is revenge. Yan Zixing, master of Yan Palace, has loved He Qingning for two lifetimes, while Huainanzhi, son of the master of Xing Palace, silently protects her from the shadows.
"You are my woman. Where do you think you can run? Can you escape my grasp?" Yan Zixing declared, "Whoever captures the assassin Qingning alive will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold!"
Qingning wept as she faced death. "I'd marry anyone but you!" The day she was reborn was also the day she began to settle the grudges of the past.
She held a long sword and stood atop a cliff. "Yan Zixing, take one more step and I'll die right in front of you."
"Huainanzhi, whatever you want to do, Qingning, I'll go with you."
Ten years passed, vast as an ocean. Yan Zixing sent countless people to search for Qingning, but still found no trace of her. He planted the cliffside with fruit trees.
He Qingning was the assassin Qingning. Overjoyed to learn this, Yan Zixing began his long pursuit of his wife.
At that time, unrest broke out among the palace masters, and Yan Palace was on the brink of disaster. Through his own ingenuity, Yan Zixing became the foremost of the Five Palaces.
"You are my Palace Mistress, He Qingning."
"Set me free, and I'll help you uncover the secrets."
After many twists and turns, He Qingning and Yan Zixing finally came together, ushering in a peaceful and prosperous Kaiyuan era.
