Qingtailu

On a snowy night in the seventh year of Yonghui, a "plum blossom post" connected the fate of two completely unrelated people. Xiao Jue was an anonymous official of the former dynasty, and he was also the coldest and most ruthless swordsman in the new dynasty. His lifelong belief is to use absolute rationality to cleanse the court and promote his way of saving the country. In his eyes, emotions are the only redundancy, and personal relationships are the fatal weakness. Xie Zhiwei is a talented woman from a declining noble family and an unknown female official in the palace. She endured and survived among the red walls and green tiles, relied on her extraordinary wisdom to discern opportunities in the gaps in the documents, and weaved her own web within the rules. When the case of embezzlement of ink in water transportation was discovered, he waved his sharp blade in the court hall, causing a thunderous force; she peeled off the cocoon in the palace to determine the fate of the world. From the initial mutual testing and exchange of interests, to the constant trust in each other at the critical moment of life and death, they are the most dangerous alliance and the opponents who know each other best. He gave her "Qingxin Pills" to prevent accidents, and she helped him break the "Silk Bureau" to identify loyalties and traitors. Fighting in the Golden Palace, they join forces to cut off the minions of the rear party; in the corridor on a rainy night, the phrase "I will reward you with new pistils in the coming year" is the warmth that quietly grows under the cold covenant. However, the turbulence in water transport is just the tip of the iceberg. Suspicions about military supplies at the border have arisen again, and the queen's counterattack is quietly entangled like a poisonous vine. In this chess game where imperial power and aristocratic families dance together, they are the chess players and each other's most important chess pieces. This is an alliance that begins with calculation, but ultimately transcends exploitation. When ideals and deep feelings collide, and when family, country and selfishness intertwine, can they not only keep the truth in their hearts but also protect the people in front of them in the chaotic chaos?
