After a new life, An Lingrong returned to the first year of Yongzheng. The resentful soul who died in a deep well in his previous life vows to escape the fate of a chess piece in this life. However, a pot of Jasmine hiding a bloody ring dragged her into an earlier palace puzzle.
The cold-faced emperor's thoughts are unpredictable, and the secrets of the previous dynasty are hidden in the lock of rewards; the shadow of the iron-fisted prince is shrouded in shadow, and even the lives of her relatives are threatened, forcing her to become a hidden blade that peeps into the emperor's heart. Concubine Hua is making things difficult, the Queen Mother is critically ill, and the old case of deposing the concubine has been revived... She is walking on thin ice between the emperor's will and the prince's ambition.
Blood-stained fingertips, strange cold incense, secret passages in dry wells, evil patterns from the past... Surrounded by numerous murderous intentions, An Lingrong struggled to survive, vowing to uncover the truth about Chunyuan's old case and fight his way out of this deep palace of cannibalism.
