In the thirteenth year of the Apocalypse, Chang'an was covered with snow. Shen Qingci, the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Qianzhen, escaped from the corpses in the south of the Yangtze River with half of a jade pendant with the word "zhou" and ran to the north alone to seek an audience with Xiao Jue, the powerful king of Jingbei.
She is the daughter of a sinner who bears the blood feud of exterminating her family. She has the unique skills of Tibetan medicine and poisoning, and she works every step just for revenge; he is a king with a different surname who has a large number of soldiers. He is burdened with a hidden disease in his childhood and has a deep dark belly. He regards marriage as a chess piece to check and balance the court. A marriage was granted, and the two were forced to bind. Under the red candle were temptations and warnings, and the palace contained conspiracy and murderous intent.
During the border war, she sacrificed her life to save him on the line of life and death, and he made an exception to put down his cold armor for her; in the whirlpool of the court, her identity as a subjugated country was exposed, and he was caught in the dilemma of "preserving power and position" and "preserving true love." A misunderstanding caused the two to fall apart.
When the palace changes suddenly, the remnants of the previous dynasty stir up trouble, and the truth gradually emerges - the destruction of the Shen family was actually a well-planned conspiracy, and his hidden illness is closely related to her family secrets.
When they met again in the shadow of swords and swords, he took the country as his betrothal and promised her to "be together for the rest of their lives"; she put aside the blood feud and used wisdom as an edge to accompany him to put an end to the troubled times. In the game of power and intrigue, there is the deep love for mutual redemption; under the shackles of ethics, there is the unswerving preference until death. Chang'an's old dream finally came true, and he returned to the boat late. He and she were in charge of the mountains and rivers of the prosperous age together.
