Six years ago, the Lin family in Suzhou was full of bloodshed. Only the orphan girl Lin Xi managed to survive in the embers of the fire. She changed her name to Yin Rumeng and took up residence in the Yin Mansion in the capital, hiding the blood feud in a dormant posture.
Six years later, the Chunsou Hunting Ground was in a turbulent situation. She risked her life and infiltrated there, not only to trace the clues to the truth behind the annihilation of the family, but also accidentally broke into a corner of the chess game in the capital - the appearance of the young general Gu Ren was a glimmer of fate, but it also attracted the hostility of Xu Yunqian, the eldest daughter of the Hou Mansion. The two of them clashed wits and worked step by step. The fog of the Lin Mansion's old case gradually dissipated, and the bigger truth was shocking: this magnificent capital city is an overwhelming chess game. No one can stay out of it. Everyone is a chess player in the chess game and a chess piece involuntarily.
There is a blood feud ahead, and she is never afraid to make enemies of the world: if she is regarded as a thorn in the side, she will use her wits to determine the winner; if she is regarded as a relative, she will decide the outcome by means, but to see who can have the last laugh.
Gu Ren was the only exception in her chess game - she knew that the road ahead was dangerous, but she wanted to leave but couldn't, wanted to stay but didn't dare to, and struggled repeatedly between choices. But he decided to break her hesitation and protect her with all his courage: "Just do what you should do, as long as I am here, no one can hurt you at all."
