In the troubled times of the late Tang Dynasty, people's hearts were treacherous, and kindness was always the most fatal weakness.
In his previous life, Xu Yan was gentle and kind, tolerant and accommodating in everything, and treated others generously and tolerantly.
But her kindness was rewarded with extravagant oppression; her concession was rewarded with a desperate situation that overturned the whole family.
It wasn't until her death and the lights went out that she suddenly realized: In troubled times, those who are soft-hearted are doomed to die miserably!
Once she resumed her twelfth year in college, she tore up the mask of meekness and completely abandoned all the saintly hearts.
She denounced the greedy clan in public; she cut off all ties with hypocritical relatives and friends.
The world reviled her as cold-blooded, mean, ruthless and unjust.
Only Xiao Yu, the cold-faced imperial guard, surrendered to her paranoia and fought for her against the troubled times.
If she dares to turn against her, he dares to hand her a knife; if she wants to settle things, he dares to punish the evildoer.
He saw through the coldness of the world and never advised her to be kind. He was willing to bear all the blood for her and clear away all the thorns.
"Ayan, the world forces you to do good, so I will do evil for you. You don't need to be kind, I am responsible for everything."
She is gentle and gentle, with a sharp edge in her hand to defeat fate; he wields a sharp blade to conquer the world and spends the rest of his life protecting one person.
In troubled times, both sides depend on each other.
In this life, to clear old grudges, protect loved ones, and overcome difficulties, the two of them join forces to reverse destiny in the decadent late Tang Dynasty and create a new life!
