That night, a fire broke out in Shen's mansion, and all the loyal people in the family turned into ghosts of injustice. Fifteen-year-old Shen Qingyun crawled out of the sea of blood from the mountain of corpses holding half of a blue bird jade pendant, vowing to pay for the blood debt of this cannibalistic world.
Five years later, a boy named Chen Qing was born from a poor family. He stepped into this man-eating capital step by step, just to dig out the shocking secrets buried deep under the imperial power.
He thought he was the chess player, but he didn't know that he was also a piece on someone else's chessboard. Until he met her - Xiao Yingyue, the aloof and noble daughter of the prime minister's house.
When the sharp blade of revenge meets the intrigues of the court, when the hatred of exterminating a family meets the heart-beating person.
What he wants is to overthrow this decadent dynasty, and what she wants is to preserve the family's glory.
