The general's palace collapsed overnight, and the only daughter, Lu Yunhe, brought her old servant to Beijing, just to clear her father's grievance of "collaboration with the enemy and treason." The prosperity of Beijing is a prison that frightens her every step of the way. In the forbearance of being sheltered by others, she hides her unyielding passion and unyielding edge.
One rainy night, she encounters the assassinated prince Rong Wu. One is an orphaned girl who bears the family's stigma, and the other is a frustrated prince who seems to be idle and withdrawn from the world. The threads of fate are quietly entangled. From allies who test each other to confidants who are gradually falling in love, they work together to explore the truth in the turbulent court and among the covetous forces.
The calculations of the Prime Minister's Office, the suspicion of the new emperor, and the smoke at the border have woven into an airtight web. Can the oath under the Hewu tree withstand the coldness of power and intrigue? When the truth is revealed and family, country and personal relationship are in dilemma, how will they choose?
The moonlight shines all over Hewu, revealing conspiracy, perseverance, and the mutual redemption of two hearts in troubled times.
