In her previous life, she was the Crown Princess Yan Rong. She was a loyal family member, but her father and brother died tragically, and her mother drank poison and died in love. She was imprisoned in Wutong Garden of the East Palace, and the prince strangled her alive with white silk.
When she opened her eyes again, she became the orphan Yan Zhao from the incense shop. God gave her a chance to come back, so she would use this mortal body to recover the debts from her previous life, one by one, with interest.
Shen Yunzhou, the young minister of Dali Temple, investigated the unsolved cases in recent years.

Behind every shocking tragedy, there was a looming figure of a woman.
Even his brother, who had been on the sickbed for many years, seemed to have been involved in this bottomless pool of muddy water.
What secrets are they hiding?
Yan Zhao sneered: Use the evidence of crime as a blade and the bones as a ladder.
In this life, she wants this majestic imperial city to pay for the blood debts of her Yan family.
