On a rainy night, magnolia patterns appear on the corpse, when ten years of injustice are revived.
The youngest widow in Shuntian Mansion, "Brother Shen", is actually Shen Qingci disguised as a man. She kept her name anonymous just to find out the truth about why her father was falsely accused of rebellion ten years ago and her whole family was wronged. A corpse of a wealthy businessman with coagulated blood from all his orifices, and the hidden magnolia embroidery on his collar were exactly the same as the "anti-thief" mark in his father's old case - the case was still unsolved, and the conspiracy was coming.
A series of poisonings and killings, a secret shadow in the palace, and secrets hidden under the sword.
The figure of the current Prime Minister Li Si is looming behind the murder case, and the sudden intervention of the mysterious young master Xiao Yu makes the situation even more confusing. From the market to the palace, from the Imperial Hospital to the Imperial Ancestral Temple, every corpse tells the story of hidden sins. Shen Qingci used the Eye of Duzuo to uncover the mystery of poisonous techniques, and between the autopsy knife and the silver needle, he gradually pieced together the horrifying truth: the magnolia pattern was not a mark of rebellion, but a clue to the secret edict left by the late emperor; the sudden death of the Yuan concubine, the unjust death of loyal ministers, and the successive murders of the old navy... Everything pointed to a great change in the palace that had been brewing for twenty years.
The jade seal appears in the world, two emperors compete for the throne, and she decides the world with her mortal body.
When the late emperor's private seal "Yongchang Yulan" reappeared in the world, when the Shadow Pavilion controlled by the Queen Mother surfaced, and when the army of puppets controlled by "Forgotten River Water" came to the city, Shen Qingci stood at the center of the storm holding the "Poison Classic" and the magnolia hairpin left by his father. What is examined is the corpse, what is solved is the case, what is solved is the situation, and what is upheld is justice in the world.
This is a game with corpses as paper and truth as ink.
This is the legend of a woman who, as a widower, defeated palace conspiracies, cleared wrongs, and settled the country.
