On the wedding day, eleven guests were poisoned and died.
Shen Zhaotang was accused of being the murderer, and her younger brother committed suicide out of fear of the crime. Her fiancé Pei Yanchen personally reviewed her death sentence.
When the knife fell, a broken lamp sent her back seven days before the wedding.
This time, she could see the gray haze left by the lies.
But Wuhen only recognizes deliberate lies and ignores silence, misunderstandings and half-truths; and every time she comes back, she will lose an emotional memory related to her old friend.
Within seven days, a bloody dagger appeared in his brother's room, wine for the wedding banquet was hidden in his mother's dowry warehouse, and the sponsor in the marriage certificate had been dead for twelve years. All clues ultimately point to the Yongningcang fire that was buried by the court, aristocratic families and the royal family.
In order to survive, Shen Zhaotang had to cooperate with the person she least wanted to believe - her fiancé Pei Yanchen.
She was responsible for finding cracks in the lies, and he was responsible for turning the cracks into evidence that would stand up in court.
But the deeper the investigation, the more Shen Zhaotang discovered: his father was not completely innocent, there were sacrifices hidden behind his second uncle's kindness in raising him, and Pei Yanchen also had old family debts that must not be made public.
Everyone in Linwu City is telling the truth.
However, everyone is only willing to say the half that is beneficial to themselves.
This time, Shen Zhaotang did not ask anyone to arrange a way out for her.
She wants the wedding banquet to be carried out, old cases to be retried, and the innocence that was maintained with the lives of innocent people to be recalculated one by one.
