Shen Qing, the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister of the Northern Liang Dynasty, suffered from "musculoskeletal thirst" since childhood. She was afraid of people's closeness but coveted body heat. She lived like a porcelain beauty in a golden and jade cage. When he fell into the ice pool on a cold night, he was caught in the arms of Xiao Lin, the king of Zhenbei who had returned from guarding the border. The moment their skins touched each other, she lost control and hugged the only source of fire that could quench her thirst.
Xiao Lin pinched her trembling jaw and sneered: "Miss Shen's illness... Is she just waiting for me to cure her?"
In order to cover up her illness, she became his sharp knife in the power arena. He crushed the secrets in the back house for her, and she slaughtered all the enemies in the court for him.
When Shen Qing found out that the prince of the East Palace who poisoned him in his previous life was actually feuding with Xiao Lin, a silver needle pressed against his heart: "We can form an alliance, but the prince's heart needs to be cut out half an inch for me to refine the poison."
Xiao Lin pressed the tip of the needle into his chest with his backhand: "I have already prepared it... My heart-eating bird."
Two souls licking their wounds in the darkness turned their desires into poison, turned their strategies into marriage documents, and fed each other's madness in the bloody web.
