(Dual Male Leads) Dear readers, please be patient and read to the end. Thank you! If there's a case you'd like to see, leave it in the comments and I'll add it in. [Dali Temple Deputy Minister vs. Rugged General, Straight-Laced Lady General vs. Delicate Young Master and Devoted Husband, Female Physician vs. Cheerful Puppy-Energy Young Master, White Lotus Lady vs. Possessive Straight Woman]
A string of bizarre cases involving vengeful spirits strikes Chang'an. Bloodied sobs echo from the City God Temple at midnight, and shadowy figures haunt abandoned houses. As fear grips the city, the emperor makes an unprecedented move, summoning three extraordinary talents to solve the mystery together:
Lin Jinzhan, the iron-faced Deputy Minister of the Dali Temple, uses law and logic to expose schemes and read people's hearts. Yan Jinmian, a physician from humble beginnings, uses her medical and toxicological expertise to uncover the hidden truths in corpses. Song Shiwei, the battle-hardened General Who Guards the North, uses her martial skills and battlefield experience to expose traps disguised as the work of ghosts and gods.
When they first meet, Lin Jinzhan finds Song Shiwei crude, while Song Shiwei teases Lin Jinzhan for being too prim. Yan Jinmian gently smooths things over. From wary tests to seamless teamwork, the three traverse Chang'an's streets and lanes and the wilds beyond, uncovering the conspiracies behind the so-called ghost cases and becoming one another's most trusted allies.
But as they spend more time together, Song Shiwei grows increasingly natural about shielding Lin Jinzhan, and Lin Jinzhan even bends her principles when Song Shiwei's safety is at stake. As their brotherly bond quietly changes into something more, the glances hidden behind case files and the nights spent side by side in the military tent become secrets they understand without a word. Together, the three unravel layer upon layer of mystery. They must face not only undercurrents in the imperial court and the martial world, but also the surging feelings in their own hearts, finding a path of their own amid strange cases and the tangled depths of human nature.
