In the winter of the seventeenth year of Zhenning's reign, Shen Zhaoning's husband died.
Jingzhao Mansion said that he slipped and fell into the water, but she found a note written in blood in the interlayer of her late husband's shroud:
"Beisi... Yin... Will be silenced on the 17th."
She went to complain and was threatened.
She went to redress her grievance, but was blocked in the mourning hall and almost humiliated.
That night, she held the blood-stained scissors and knelt in front of the coffin and swore:
"When I find out who harmed you, and when I avenge you, I will come to take you home."
But as a widow, why should she fight with those powerful people?
The only way is - a woman disguises herself as a man, takes the imperial examination, enters Chang'an, and enters the court.
From then on, Shen Zhaoning disappeared from the world.
Only a man named "Shen Zhao" stepped onto the single-plank bridge that tens of millions of people were fighting for.
She thought the hardest thing was to hide it from the examiner.
Later I learned that the most difficult thing was——
Seeing the enemy who killed her husband back then, he saluted her in the court hall and called her "Master Shen".
And she returned the favor with a smile, hiding a knife that had been sharpened for three years in her sleeve.
It took her ten years to complete this road.
Kill thousands of enemies just to resurrect a dead man.
But can the dead really be resurrected?
