Shen Qingci wore it.
She was dressed as the legitimate daughter of the general's palace. Her father was a general who was guarding the country. She was guarding the border in the north and her life and death were unknown. But she was stuffed into a sedan chair in the palace of the regent. The man was so powerful and cold and ruthless. Xiao Jue, the regent who killed his two fiancées.
Under the red candle, he asked her: each should take what he wants, or should he sincerely promise each other?
She chose the former.
He thought it was a seemingly perfect deal, but he used himself as a shield when she was assassinated, tacitly tolerated her when she broke into the government office alone, killed the assassin with his own hands when she was trapped in the delivery room, and picked up her and the newborn baby who were covered in blood.
He said: In this life, we will live up to our expectations and share weal and woe.
But she doesn't know——
There is half a blood letter hidden in her biological mother's relics, pointing to the mystery of the disappearance of the northern defense map; her bloodline is implicated in the lost sacred objects in the grassland, a relic waiting for the return of the saint, and the truth about the murder case twenty years ago.
Some people in the court wanted her to die, some in the palace wanted her to shut up, and some outside the border called her "descendant."
And whether the man beside her pillow who promised to be with her through thick and thin has already realized that she was never the legitimate daughter of a general.
Her origin, her mission, the transaction between her and him that started with red silk——
Are they plotting against each other, or is someone really sincere?
