"Silver Sea Rouge Record"
When she was ten years old, Shen Zhiwei knelt on the Meridian Gate execution ground and watched her father's head fall to the ground.
The crime is that he embezzled money and paid 300,000 taels of silver. She knew it was false, but no one believed the words of an orphaned criminal.
Ten years later, in the most inconspicuous rouge shop in the east city of Beijing, she came back to life with an abacus and a book "Secrets of the Dressing Table". On the surface, she makes makeup and powder, and wins the favor of ladies with her exclusive ancient recipes; secretly, she runs the most secretive underground bank in the capital, and she writes down her name behind every dirty silver that passes through her fingers.
Rank three or above, the handle in her hand is enough to overturn half of the court.
She's not in a hurry. She was waiting for an opening.
Until Zhou Ting'an, the Minister of Household Affairs, suddenly died overnight, and a palace silk clothes of unknown origin flowed out from the dead pawn shop - hidden in the clothes was the blood edict of the late emperor, and the blood edict pointed to a shocking secret case that had been sealed for twenty years: the person sitting under the dragon chair of the current emperor may not be of the blood of a true dragon.
The rouge formula is the password, the sound of the abacus beads is the secret code, and the truth that can overthrow the country is locked in the dossier. When the account book of the daughter of a guilty minister hits the royal fig leaf, whether it will be shattered to pieces or turned upside down depends on how she adjusts the scale.
She said: I don't play chess, I play bank. Wherever the silver flows, it is my chessboard.
