She was a princess who had lost her country and was used as a pawn to marry into the regent's palace.
He is a powerful regent, but he is a medicine man. It is said that he will not survive next spring.
On the wedding night, she pretended to be cowardly and he pretended to be sick. The two of them looked at each other and sneered in their hearts: They looked very similar.
She secretly poisoned the medicine, but he calmly defused it; he deliberately set up a trap to test her, but she saw what he was doing. One wants to use him to restore the country, and the other wants to use the power behind her. No one trusts the other, and no one takes advantage.
Until one day, he forced her into a corner and asked in a hoarse voice: "Su Nian, how many surprises do you have for me?"
And she smiled and put the dagger against his heart: "My lord, how long can you pretend to be sick?"
The two strong men fell off their horses and pulled to the extreme. When a chess piece falls in love with a chess player, who will lose and who will win in this game of chess?
