He is the powerful regent, and she is the new champion who disguises herself as a man.
In the year when the whole family was executed, Shen Yun hid the last jade hairpin and survived under the name "Hu Wenqin". During these ten years of poverty, she lived her life like a knife - the blade pointed inward, cutting off all her daughter's emotions; the tip of the knife pointed outward, aiming at the person behind the scenes that destroyed her family.
On the first day after entering the court, the regent Xiao Jing set his sights on her. He gave her tea as a test, but she did not leak it; he visited him late at night, and she handled it calmly. Until one night, he found a yellowed portrait on her desk - the woman in the painting had the same face as the cold young official in front of him.
"Have Lord Hu ever seen this person?" He asked.
She raised her eyes, and there was no wave in her eyes: "Return to the prince, no."
But at that moment, she clutched the hosta in her sleeves tightly, her fingertips turning white.
Xiao Jing smiled. This Hu Wenqin is either the biggest hypocrite in the world, or - the orphan girl of the Shen family that he has been looking for for ten years.
From then on, above the court, he pressed forward step by step; below the court, she set up defenses everywhere. He gave her an inkstone, and she carved on the bottom "I would like to be a blue bird, holding a blue cloud in my mouth." When she was injured in an assassination, his blood-stained robe stood in front of her: "Shen Yun, if anything happens to you, I will wash out the Zhou Mansion with blood."
She finally admitted: "I will not die, I will overturn the verdict."
But what happens after the verdict is reversed? The crime of deceiving the emperor is death, and the crime of deceiving the emperor is even more serious. Xiao Jing held her hand in front of the civil and military officials of the court: "I will guarantee it with my life."
