The Dayan Dynasty used the thread of life as the key link, one thread determined the noble and the humble, and one thread determined life and death.
Shang Luyin has no lifeline.
She was the last member of the exterminated Shang family. When she was three years old, she was carried out of the sea of fire and ate in the wasteland for twenty years. When she returned to the capital, she was the niece of a medicine seller who spoke in broken Mandarin. She was wrapped in an old coat and her hands were covered with frostbite. She was smiling to everyone she looked at - like a loach crawling out of muddy water, slippery and inconspicuous.
No one knew she could see life threads.
No one knew that she could cut the thread with just a stretch of her hand.
Cut the thread of loyalty, and a die-hard loyalist becomes a traitor. Cut the thread of good fortune, and success will turn into misfortune. She doesn't need a knife or poison, she just needs to walk into a room and touch someone's wrist, and three days later the people in that room will start biting themselves.
She wants to rescue all her relatives who have been imprisoned for twenty years. She wants to overturn a big lie from thirty years ago. She wants to show this world, which uses "fate" as a noose, what a person without destiny looks like.

But the deeper she went, the more she discovered that the person who raised her had treated her as a sacrifice to the world from the beginning.
She is the knife.
And she didn't want to make a knife.
