After Qin Zhisheng is reborn as the frail legitimate daughter of a marquis in the enemy kingdom, she cautiously sets out on the road to restore her country.
Wearing the mask of a docile young lady, she joins the rebel faction, devises strategies, gathers intelligence far and wide, and secretly protects her allies.
But when she is caught stealing a secret letter by Zhuang Xuan, she simply throws herself into his arms, wraps her arms around his waist, and feigns weakness as she sobs: “Lord Zhuang, are you in love with me?”
Zhuang Xuan answers in a low voice: “I am…”
From then on, she becomes his pawn, manipulated and used time and again, even betrayed…
She begins to hate him with all her heart.
Until her identity as a rebel is exposed and everyone wants her dead. He steps forward to shield her, sweeping a cold gaze across the crowd: “Who dares lay a hand on her? She belongs to me.”
When the time is right, she tears off her docile disguise, leads her troops into the imperial city, and declares aloud: “I want this kingdom, and him too!”
The man on the bed props his chin in his hand and gives her a wicked smile: “Darling, so you’ve wanted me for a long time?”
