Xie Wanyuan, the daughter of the master of the Tianji Pavilion, was born with an astrologer saying that she was destined to have an evil star and she would marry a husband. She was doomed to be lonely throughout her life. When the marriage was discussed at the age of sixteen, the three young masters withdrew one by one.
Only Pei Hanzhou, the protégé from Northern Xinjiang, took the initiative to propose marriage on the grounds that he was "alone in the game and not afraid of ghosts and gods."
Both of them are discarded pieces in their respective chess games - Xie Wanyuan is the fig leaf for the family to cover up the truth, and Pei Hanzhou is the hostage piece in the hands of the emperor.
Bound by a marriage contract, the two went from using each other to breaking the chess game side by side, and finally completely overturned the chess game that had suppressed her for twenty years.
Sounds good and interesting
