In the turbulent era when wars burned the old mountains and rivers, Shen Juezhi, a young general who shouldered the heavy responsibility of his family and country, accidentally rescued Su Yanqing, a seemingly frail scholar who was hiding a shocking secret during a flight.
One is a bloody soldier who vows to protect the remaining land. He points his spear at the enemy, but in his heart is burdened with the suspicion of the court and the life and death of his subordinates. The other is an elegant, gentle and lonely official in troubled times who has a strategy in his chest. He can write policies to calm the people in his pen, and he also hides a chess game in his sleeves that can turn the world around.
Their fate was bound by an unexpected encounter. From testing each other and having their own reservations, they gradually developed trust as they faced life and death together and conspired to break the situation. Shen Juezhi's spear split the thorns ahead for Su Yanqing, and Su Yanqing's resourcefulness lit up the troubled times for Shen Juezhi.
When power schemes and schemes come with the smoke of war, when the righteousness of family and country are intertwined with the deepest friendship in the heart, two souls who should be strangers in this broken world will eventually use flesh and blood as a pen to jointly write a chapter about trust, protection and the reunion of confidants in troubled times.
Purpose: Love is the most precious gift in the world.
