In the previous life, Gu Yunqing, the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, fell in love with the prince Xiao Jue, but in exchange for her heart and soul, she had her whole family raped and a glass of poisoned wine.
Before she died, she realized that her stepmother Liu's gentleness and virtuousness were all a disguise, her stepsister Gu Yurou's sisterly love was all false, and the prince she had loved for many years was taking advantage of her from beginning to end.
After resurrecting his life, Gu Yunqing returned from hell, losing his innocence and replacing it with sharpness.
She is no longer a chess piece manipulated by her stepmother, but the chess player. The first thing she broke was the marriage that ruined her life. She skillfully dealt with each other and pushed every enemy from her past life into the abyss.
However, in this life, she met an unexpected person - Prince Jing Xiao Heng.
The iron-blooded prince who guarded the frontier that she had never seen in her previous life appeared again and again when she needed him most in this life. He is not good at words, but he protects her with actions; he does not fight or grab, but he holds the whole country in front of her.
When Gu Yunqing discovered that Xiao Heng also carried memories of her previous life, and when she realized that this man had been secretly in love with her for two whole lives, her cold heart finally began to melt.
Prince Xiao Jue's hypocrisy, stepmother Liu's viciousness, stepsister Gu Yurou's disguise, the intricate power struggle in the court, the turbulent war on the border, and the "Shadow Guard" organization hiding in the dark and controlling everything...
Gu Yunqing and Xiao Heng, one is strategizing in the dark, and the other is overcoming obstacles in the open. The couple worked together step by step, and finally cleared the court, pacified the frontiers, and ushered in a prosperous and peaceful age.
