Xiao Mingye, the war king who dominated the whole court during the Great Ping Dynasty, spent half of his life bloody on the battlefield.
There was no cure for the strange poison in his body, and he searched all over the world for no cure. Finally, he set his sights on the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers, which was free from worldliness and contained a treasure that defied the heavens.
The owner of the valley, Chu Li, grew up in the secret realm of Taoyuan. He has a pure and innocent mind and does not understand the sinister nature of the human heart. When they first met, Xiao Mingye calculated every step of the way, deliberately being gentle and pretending to be devoted, treating her as the only pawn to detoxify and extend her life.
He coaxed her to be emotional, tricked her into falling in love, forced her to spend all the treasures of the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers, and spent half her life cultivating to detoxify him. When it came to fruition, he fulfilled his promise and Shili Hongzhuang married her into the Zhan Palace, but he never showed any sincerity to her.
To him, Chu Li is just a chess piece that can be kept when used up, but discarded when it is no longer useful.
When Bai Yueguang returns to Beijing, chaos abounds, and plots and provocations follow one after another. Misunderstandings piled up one after another, and suspicions deepened day by day. From then on, there was no warmth in the palace, only cold exchanges.
Chu Li unexpectedly became pregnant, and after seeing through his cold nature, she wanted to give up. She just wanted to quietly escape from the cage with the ball. But the woman pressed forward step by step, maliciously framed her, and poured all the dirty water on her.
Xiao Mingye has always been different from what he means. He prefers to hide behind his harshness. He doesn't know what it means to cherish, and he only confines people around him in a paranoid and violent way. He listened to the slander, used cold violence, imprisonment, and harsh treatment, and crushed Chu Li's last trace of affection with his own hands.
The love is exhausted and the heart is broken. Chu Li resolutely resigned and left, just to escape.
In a desperate situation, fortunately, the second male lead came to her aid and gave her a fake death potion, making everyone think that Princess Zhan was dead.
