The Baili Family in the capital, the head of the four great families, has power over everything. Baili Yao, the only legitimate daughter of the Baili family, was born to stand at the top of power.
In the eyes of outsiders, she is a dignified and cold young lady. She is good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she cherishes her words like gold and never talks to others. The world only knew that she was aloof and arrogant, but they didn't know that when she was sixteen, she discovered her mother's relics in a secret compartment of the ancestral hall: a blood-stained diary, a broken sword, and a last-minute letter.
The mother did not die of illness, but was "cleaned up" by the Baili family.
The murderer was the man she had called "father" for sixteen years.
From that moment on, Baili Yao stopped talking. It's not that she can't say it, it's that every word she said must count. For every word, someone has to pay the price with blood.
After three years of dormancy, she secretly gathered her forces, using silence as her armor and calculation as her blade. Four men with different identities stepped into her chess game one after another - some committed treason for her, some went crazy for her, and some fell into the abyss for eternal destruction for her.
And when the truth was revealed, everyone finally understood——
It's not that Baili Yao doesn't feel pain, but her pain is enough to bury the entire dynasty.
