During the Yongkang period of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there was an unjust case and a huge gamble.
Shen Qinghe, who visited the palace from a poor family, pointed out the long-standing shortcomings of the salt administration in every word in the imperial examination policy review, which shocked everyone in the audience. At the Qionglin Banquet, Li Changning, the arrogant and arrogant eldest princess, raised her hand and pointed: "It's him." The civil and military officials in the court thought that Jinzhiyuye was interested in her, but they didn't know that the princess had another plan in mind - Tanhua, a young man who seemed as gentle as jade, hid a secret that could destroy the entire Shen family.
Her real name is Shen Qinghe, and she is the daughter of Shen Zhui, the minister of household affairs who died unjustly ten years ago.
Marriage is granted in the golden palace, and flowers and candles are provided in the bridal chamber. Two people with different intentions, each wearing a mask in the tent of red candles. She stayed outside alone on the pretext of a hidden illness, and she tried every step of the way with an arrogant attitude. Until that night, the princess blocked her in front of the chessboard and said word by word: "I will help you investigate what you want to investigate, and you can help me bring down the Chen family."
From the secret files hidden in the wall of Songjiang's old house, to the treasonous letters hidden in the secret room of Cining Palace; from the iron smuggling at Liangzhou border, to the three thousand armors hidden in the underground of Prince Zhao's Mansion. The two hands were clasped in the dark night, and the two women were side by side on the tip of the knife. She blocked the knife for her and fought hand-to-hand with dozens of dead soldiers outside the West City Gate; she interceded for her and smashed her forehead on the gold brick of Qianqing Palace.
When the truth was revealed layer by layer, they discovered that it was not just the chief assistant who killed the Shen family, and it was not just the Queen Mother who forced Concubine Jing to death. That net was woven from the south of the Yangtze River to the north of Saibei, from the emperor's pillow to under the dragon chair in the Golden Palace.
"The rich families don't understand the tears of the common people, but they still hold the pipa and sing for peace.
And the love between them, which began with use, became trapped in each other's acquaintance, and was tempered into a blade between life and death, is the most unpredictable variable in this huge chess game.
