In the forty-seventh year of Kangxi's reign, the scandal of the deposed prince swept the court and the public. Shen Mingwei, the legitimate daughter of the Shen family of the Han Army in the Zhengbai Banner, was originally engaged to Gu Yanci, a noble of the Xianghuang Banner. However, on the night of her wedding, she was framed by her husband and his concubine Shen Mingyao. She was charged with treason and treason. The entire Shen family was executed, and Shen Mingwei committed suicide in the execution ground with hatred. When she was on the verge of death, she was trapped in an endless cycle of rebirth by her obsession. Every time she died, she would return to the three days before the ceremony - that was the starting point of her fate's overturn.
With the memory of dozens of tragic deaths, Shen Mingwei put away the tenderness of a girl, used hatred as a blade, and worked step by step to avenge the Gu and Shen families. She coldly dismantled Gu Yanci's political calculations and dragged him into the quagmire of power; she tore off the hypocritical mask of her concubine and ruined her reputation. But at the end of every successful revenge, she still dies in an accident or a vendetta, returning to the origin of the cycle.
From the beginning when Gu Yanci regarded her as a expendable political outcast, he was attracted by the loneliness and ruthlessness in her eyes in every life, from using her to being tempted, from being tempted to being obsessed. In the cycle, he gradually recovered the memory fragments of his previous life, and finally realized that he had personally pushed the people he loved into hell in countless reincarnations. When revenge becomes the shackles of the cycle, love and hate become a prison for two people, in the end, no one can escape from this sadomasochism where life is a chess.
