During the Yong'an period of Daliang, the court was in turmoil. Beiyan was lurking in the capital, and a "Tian Luo" secret report alarmed the emperor.
She is Shen Yuan, the most famous courtesan in Yong'an City and the sharpest knife in the Secret Detective Department. He has been dormant for ten years, using his laughter as a blade and his body as a bait to circulate among the powerful and the powerful, never missing a beat. Until that night, she was ordered to approach Xiao Ye, the commander of Jinyiwei, but found that this seemingly unruly man was secretly tracking down the same elite organization.
He is Xiao Ye, a sycophantic commander who rose to power through nepotism in everyone's eyes, but in reality he is a hidden stumbling block laid by the late emperor, carrying the emperor's orders and walking alone in the abyss.
A hunter disguised as prey, a lonely minister disguised as a madman. The two competed in trials and counter-tests, dancing together on the tip of a knife. Each was the biggest variable in the other's mission. When life and death conflict with positions, when sincerity and calculations entangle—
It is destiny to meet your opponent in chess.
"Master Xiao wants to arrest me?"
"No, I want to save you."
"Why?"
"With your life, you can only die in my arms."
