In her previous life, Shen Qingci, a noble girl from the capital, mistrusted her close relatives and unfaithful fiancé, causing the town government to overthrow due to witchcraft and prophecies. Her father and brother were beheaded, and their female relatives were exiled. She also died in the snowy road of exile with hatred.
After returning from rebirth, the gentle daughter-in-law transformed into a sharp-edged sword: she took back her aunt's power and made her sinister cousin suffer the consequences. Facing her fiancé who broke off the engagement, she even swore in public that she would "rather marry an exile than turn back."
The family is facing a catastrophic disaster, and all the men in the family are exiled to the cold regions of the far north. During the escort, Shen Qingci protected the whole family with her gentle shoulders. She met Xiao Yan, a defeated general who was wearing a heavy yoke and hiding his sharp edge. She recognized his hidden dragon spirit, rescued him, and formed an alliance with the promise of protecting her family.
Dependent on each other for three thousand miles, the two gradually developed feelings for each other from allies. Arriving at the barren Blackthorn Plains, Shen Qingci built fire pits with his own hands, searched for underground rivers, opened up wasteland, brewed Blackthorn wine, made dyes, and led caravans to travel around the world, turning the wasteland into a "Taoyuan" fortress.
The decay of the dynasty cannot tolerate the pure land, and the new county guards are pressing forward step by step. At the Hongmen Banquet, Shen Qingci throws a cup as a signal, Xiao Yan kills corrupt officials, and the two rebel.
From the Black Thorn Plains to the Nine Gates of the capital, he charged into battle, while she settled the logistics and checked the hearts of the people. In the end, the emperor and the empress co-governed and the prosperous age began. In this life, everyone who has harmed her and her family will inevitably be liquidated.
"I once looked up to the sky in the dust, and now, the whole world trembles at our name."
