In the troubled times of the Republic of China, warlords separated their regimes, and wars raged across the mountains and rivers. The Gu family in the north holds a heavy army and is a warlord family that no one dares to challenge in the city of Beiping. The old house of the Gu family has blue bricks and black tiles, and the upturned eaves hide the coldness and secrets of power; the Su family in the south has been weaving brocades for generations, and the Su embroidery skills are the best in the world. A piece of embroidery thread can embroider the spring scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, and can also hide the thoughts of the daughter's family.
A political marriage pushed Su Weiwan from the embroidery house in Jiangnan to a deep house in Peiping. Wearing a Suzhou embroidery wedding dress with gold thread and embroidered phoenix, she walked from the awning boat onto the blue brick road and became Gu Yanchen's nominal wife. He is the second son of the Gu family, and his black mandarin jacket with dark patterns makes him as cold as iron. The bronze pistol on his waist carries the family's blood feud. Her fingertips are filled with the warmth of Su embroidery, but she has to stay step by step in the whirlpool of power.
The old blue brick house locked her freedom, and the Suzhou embroidered clothes carried her love and hate. He started to use her, but he saw the softness in the cold plum blossoms and snow that she had embroidered; she started to be wary of him, but she was sincerely moved by his late night protection. However, the warlord's conspiracy, the secrets of the family's past, the belated first love, and the child's death pulled the two apart repeatedly, carving scars one after another among the bricks and tiles.
When the stitches of Suzhou embroidery can't sew up the broken sincerity, when the courtyard wall of blue bricks can't stop the artillery fire of troubled times, this marriage that started with interests will eventually become the most painful and unforgettable legend in the war of the Republic of China in the entanglement of love and hate.
