The Dayong Dynasty is imaginary, and the intrigues in the court and the undercurrents of the world coexist. The heroine Shen Wanyi was originally a top modern crisis public relations expert. Due to an accidental binding to the "Redemption Villain System" and traveling through the book, she became a cannon fodder concubine who was destined to be crushed by the male protagonist in the book.
The male protagonist Pei Ji (also known as Hanshan) is the regent of the dynasty. He is suspicious, cruel and murderous by nature. He is the most unattackable flower of the high mountains in the book. He regarded all those who came close to him as pawns or threats, but he only developed a desire to explore the heroine, a "variable" that did not follow common sense. The heroine appears to be soft and affectionate, but in reality she is careful and clear-headed, taking every heartbeat into account.
This is a dead end that begins with calculation and ends with sincerity. Every time the heroine's strategy progress bar rises by one point, the hero's suspicion and defensiveness deepen. When she finally took off her disguise and showed her sincerity, there was an insurmountable blood feud between the two and they were competing against the imperial power. The final outcome is not who failed whom, but the inevitable dislocation of two lonely souls under the torrent of the times - she died blocking his arrow, but he had to guard her ashes for the rest of his long life, tasting eternal loneliness at the pinnacle of power.
