My name is Gu Shizhao, and I am the frail and sick daughter of Tingwei Mansion. I am also Chu Xianyue, the orphan of the prince who should have died ten years ago. My "good uncle" Chu Tiankuo killed his brother and usurped the throne, thinking that the root of the problem had been eradicated long ago. He was wrong.
After ten years of dormancy, I have returned with the secret skills of Southern Xinjiang and the hidden power of Yuming Pavilion. Taking on the identity of the enemy's daughter, I stepped into the core of the empire in the most blameless way.
Uncle Emperor, have you seen it?
The loyal minister you rely on most is my first sword in restoring the country.
The imperial concubine you strive to please is my most dangerous ally.
The spiritual girl you regard as auspicious is the one who came to mourn you.
In this game of chess, you start. But it's up to me to decide the outcome.
