The great Chu court is in decay, the emperor is fatuous and cowardly, treacherous ministers are in power, loyal men and women are being wronged, Beidi and the Southern Territory are watching with eager eyes, the mountains and rivers are in turmoil, and the undercurrent of the chess game in troubled times is surging.
Princess Chu Qingchen of Kangning lives in a deep palace but hides in hiding, secretly in charge of the mysterious Cloud Pavilion, with intelligence, financial resources, secret soldiers and elite forces in hand, planning step by step, waiting for the opportunity to correct the chaos.
Shen Jingyue, an orphaned general, lost her father and brother. Bearing the injustice of her family and the righteousness of her family and country, she concealed her red makeup and transformed into the young general Shen Jinghong in the name of her brother. She wore silver armor and a red tasseled spear to guard the border. She became a god in hundreds of battles and protected the gate of the Chu Kingdom with her pride.
The young Taolin met for the first time, and the two became close friends; Fengxue blocked the sedan chair and rescued her against the order. She was not afraid of the serious crime of punishing the nine tribes, and broke into the enemy line alone, just to protect her from escaping from the marriage cage.
Chu Qingchen strategized and laid out the world's chess game; Shen Jinghong, armed with armor and weapons, swept away foreign enemies and rebelled against the party.
The palace lives up to its confidant, and the country and the country eventually return to the same place, composing a legend of an empress and a general who run in both directions and conquer the mountains and rivers side by side.
