Internet writer Zhou Ci accidentally crossed into the fictional historical dynasty "Daliang" he wrote, and became the vicious female supporting character "Zhou Ci" who was obsessed with the male protagonist and madly targeted the female protagonist in the book, and was eventually executed by the male protagonist and the villain. Zhou Ci, who was well aware of the direction of the plot, decisively gave up the fight for the male lead and instead focused on the ultimate villain in the book, the ruthless powerful minister Huo Yuan. She took advantage of her knowledge of some of the plot and character weaknesses to try to disguise herself as the most "harmless" and "loyal" ally in Huo Yuan's camp. However, in the process of jointly dealing with crises and solving deadlocks, her modern thinking, casual care, and the contrast between trying to "failure" and always being sucked into the vortex made Huo Yuan, who originally regarded everything as a chess piece, gradually lose control, and she was forcibly transformed from a dispensable chess piece into the only one he cherished and could not afford to lose in his fateful chess game. The main line of the story revolves around how Zhou Ci struggles to survive in the turbulent court and family struggles, and how he and Huo Yuan engage in a dangerous game of power, sincerity and destiny.
