    In Nanzhou, the most elegant culture is being twisted into the most sophisticated criminal code. New police officer Chu Ran discovers that behind the unsolved case his father has been investigating for twenty years, there is a dark network using Tang poetry as a coding system - "Jinghua". The operating logic of this system is chilling: using the most elegant oblique rhythms to package the bloodiest criminal instructions; using the most meaningful poetic imagery to mark the most despicable crime scenes. She is not alone on this dangerous journey to find the truth. Special police captain Ning Xing brings the power of action and silent protection; Deputy Director Jiang Qi uses wisdom to clarify the fog for her, but he is trapped in the struggle between responsibility and emotion, but cannot suppress his growing love for Chu Ran, and finally chooses to turn his affection into the most thorough protection; Xu Ziqiu, who comes from an opposing family, shows her another mirror image of the "Jinghua" world with an incompatible purity. Their appearance makes this battle no longer just a confrontation between good and evil. When Ning Xing's love is direct and firm, when Jiang Qi's love is deep and forbearing, when Xu Ziqiu's existence itself constitutes a paradox of position, Chu Ran faces not only the answer to the crime, but also the complex spectrum of human nature in extreme situations. Only when the mirror is broken can you see the flowers. The person who chose to break the mirror turned into the moon in the water - no need to salvage, just remember that he once refracted light in the darkness. This is a story about crime and passwords, but also a story about protection, sacrifice and restrained love.
