In her previous life, she was the eldest princess who died tragically in a palace incident; in this life, she has returned with a blood feud and vowed to kill all her enemies.
On the night of Xiao Zhaoning's rebirth, he was no longer a sacrificed chess piece, but a hunter playing chess. Holding a short blade, she slaughtered the rebels with blood, her head hanging high, killing one person in one step, and establishing her authority in the court. Behind her is Pei Yan, the powerful minister who seems to have arrived late, but in fact has no plans left. He handed her the list, purged the court, and became her most solid backing.
She joined forces on horseback at the front, killed generals and captured the flag, and achieved the reputation of "God of War to protect the country"; he strategized at the rear, implemented the New Deal, and cleared all obstacles for her. From the Jinluan Palace to the border battlefield, from eliminating internal enemies to riding in the Western Regions, the two are evenly matched comrades-in-arms and also unswerving lovers.
This is a road to power paved with blood. Let's see how the eldest princess Xiao Zhaoning and the powerful minister Pei Yan work together to create a bright world and build a legend of a prosperous age.
