In the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River, a fateful encounter made Shen Zhiyu, a smart and tenacious daughter of the prime minister, and Lu Zhao, a young general who cared about his family and country, deeply in love, and they made a vow that "love is like a rock and will never be transferred". However, things in the world are like chess, and fate plays tricks on people.
Overnight, the family was wronged, Shen Zhiyu fell from the clouds into the dust, shouldering a blood feud, hiding his name in the troubled times, struggling every step of the way. The situation in the capital was changing, and the battlefield was at war. Lu Zhao was forging ahead under the whirlpool of power and the weight of family and country justice, holding on to the light in his heart and the promise he made to her.
Thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, the light of swords and shadows; ten years of looking far away, the gathering and dispersing are unpredictable. They had been forced to separate, cut off from contact with each other, and suffered from suspicion and misunderstanding; they had been in different camps, looking at each other across the torrent of the world and the boundary between life and death; they had also regarded each other as the only light and faith to live in the dark night of despair.
Conspiracies, wars, power struggles, and feuds have pushed their love to the edge time and again; sacrifice, protection, waiting, and growth have tempered the depth and purity of this emotion time and time again. She washed away all her troubles for him, strategized in troubled times, and sought opportunities to redress the injustice; he overcame obstacles for her, and fought bloody battles on the battlefield, just to give her a peaceful and prosperous age, a peaceful world. When all the conspiracies are revealed, when all the war smoke will dissipate, after nine deaths, can they break through the shackles of fate and make the oath deeply ingrained in their souls truly like a rock, which has been eroded by wind and rain without diminishing its brilliance, and finally work together to see the beautiful mountains and rivers, and live in peace for years?
