Synopsis
Winter is the twenty-third year of Yongding. Shen Weiwan, the concubine of the Prime Minister's residence, knelt in the snow and watched her mother being framed by her aunt and died from a glass of poisonous wine. My sister-in-law stepped on the back of her hand and laughed at her for being as humble as clay: "You and your mother will only be our stepping stones in this life." At that time, she thought that she would be able to survive by keeping to herself, but she didn't know that a deep house was like purgatory, and the weak could not even control their own death. Mother's blood dyed the white snow red, and also dyed Shen Weiwan's eyes red. She hid her hatred like bones, recognized her aunt as her mother, married on her behalf, and married the "living king of hell" that everyone in the capital avoided - Xiao Jue, the Marquis of Jingan who had great military exploits but was poisoned and was deprived of his military power. On the wedding night, with the red candle swaying, he was half-leaning on the bed, staring at her with dark eyes: "Shen Weiwan, are you here to kill me, or are you here to save me?" She lowered her eyes and hid the sharpness in her eyes: "I can only live if Mr. Hou is alive." From then on, she worked step by step to gain a foothold in the Hou Mansion, using his power to tear off the hypocritical mask of her aunt and find out the truth about her mother's death; he watched with cold eyes, but when she was behind bars, he quietly handed over a knife. The internal fighting in the house brings up an old case, and the chaos in the court is hidden. She transformed from a concubine who was at the mercy of others to a chess player who could stand alongside him. She had no regrets about her moves in the turbulent Beijing chess game. But when the hatred was avenged and the conspiracy was over, she looked at the man beside her who she thought would only use her, but found that her heart had already quietly fallen in the repeated confrontations and protections. "Xiao Jue, this is a deal between you and me, why bother to make it real?" He clasped her wrist and rubbed the thin callus of her palm with his fingertips. His tone was unprecedentedly serious: "Shen Weiwan, you are the only real piece of my chess game." Purpose: Taking the growth and struggle of the concubine Shen Weiwan as the thread, explore the idea that "fate is not determined by birth, but the chess game can be played by one's own hands" - even in desperate situations, individuals can break the shackles with wisdom and resilience, and find self-worth in revenge and redemption; At the same time, through the emotional transformation of the male and female protagonists from being used to staying together, as well as their persistence in the righteousness of family and country, it conveys the pattern of "little love is hidden in the chess game, and big love returns to the mountains and rivers", showing the weight of friendship and responsibility in the intertwining of personal destiny and the current of the times.
