[Cross-generational sadomasochism·Two-life protection]
Delivery boy Lin Yu fell into a well on a rainy night and traveled to ancient times to become a royal guard. When he opened his eyes, he saw the queen torturing and killing his concubine Shen Qinghuan on charges of adultery. Her hateful eyes overlapped with the face of his sister in his memory. Regardless of the disparity in rank, he held up his sword to save people, used modern thinking to navigate the palace intrigues, and rose from a humble bodyguard to become the emperor's confidant. During the years when he was secretly in love with Shen Qinghuan, he used his business wisdom to rectify salt and iron, and used his infrastructure knowledge to control floods. However, he could not escape the suspicion of the imperial power. When the emperor gave him poisonous wine, Shen Qinghuan dressed in red drank it for him, and the cinnabar mole behind his ear bloomed like the last red plum in the pool of blood.
Lin Yu, who has returned to modern times, can never forget that beautiful image, but when delivering food, he bumps into Su Yao, the daughter of an escaped marriage who is identical to Shen Qinghuan. The ancestral jade pendant dangling around her neck was given to her by Shen Qinghuan in her previous life before her death. When the wedding sedan of a wealthy family overlapped with the white silk of the ancient execution ground, he once again transformed into a guardian, defeating the powerful in the business war and tearing open the shady curtain of capital in the field of public opinion. In the bond of reincarnation, he was the royal guard who protected her in ancient times, and he was also the knight who fought against the world for her in modern times.
From palace wall willows to urban neon lights, obsessions spanning thousands of years are intertwined into cocoons in the heavy rain and moonlight. When Su Yao put on the chilong jade pendant in her wedding dress, the cinnabar moles behind their ears echoed each other - it turns out that fate has long tied the red thread to the rift in time and space. Whether he is the Kingsguard or the delivery knight, his mission is always to cross the sea of people and catch the falling starlight.
