This is a story about people struggling, redeeming, and seeking afterlife in the feudal dynasty.
In the 28th year of Taiyuan, a conspiracy destroyed the Jiang family and the Lin family.
Jiang Jiarou was arranged by her parents to disguise herself as a man and take the place of her twin brother Jiang Jiaxue and become a chamberlain in the palace. During the ten years in the palace, Wang Xi, Wang Kuan, Qing'er and others gave her warmth, making her gradually forget the pain of being abandoned. Ten years later, Lin Hui, Jiang Jiaxue and others appeared again. They all said they loved her, but they all coerced her into revenge. At the end of the story, those who once gave her warmth left one by one. Jiang Jiarou finally saw her heart clearly, cut off her obsession with a knife, and rushed to a new life.
In order to take revenge, Lin Hui hid in the inner court and climbed up on other people's corpses. After overthrowing his enemies and clearing his grievances, he discovered that the culprit of the injustice was the emperor and this dynasty. And he also became the executioner who destroyed other people's families and became the butcher's knife of this feudal dynasty. In the endless darkness, Jiang Jiarou has always been a beam of light that illuminates him. But in the end, the girl he loved so much also left him, so where is his afterlife?
The theme of the story is heavy, but each character is optimistic and the overall tone is relatively relaxed.
It's so beautiful, I don't want to stop.
