During the reign of Dajing and Yongxi, everything in the world was tied to "Ling Yun" - a world network with emotions as signals and connections as rules.
Here, hatred can be turned into a sharp blade, sadness can be condensed into crystal dust, memory is data that can be tampered with, and all living beings are just moths waiting to be caught in a net.
Lin Guiwan, an embroiderer from Jiangnan, was born with a "mirror of the world" constitution and was regarded as the source of the curse that brought disaster.
In order to clear her grievance of "bloody embroidery causing disaster", she went north to Beijing, but stepped into a series of eight sufferings in which "birth, old age, illness, death, hatred and resentment, separation from love, and lack of desire" were sacrificed.
In that imperial city shrouded in lies:
She uses her heart as a needle to mend her robbed emotions, trying to repair this broken world;
Lu Xuezhe, the young minister of Dali Temple, uses the law as a blade, only believes in physical evidence rather than gods and ghosts, and vows to cut off all greedy connections;
And Shen Yan, the Lord of Youque, is burdened with the curse of imperial power and algorithm, overlooking all living beings from the high sky, trying to monopolize all love and pain.
When the crying in the delivery room becomes the same frequency noise, when the epidemic in the city is just the algorithm push of resources.
In this precisely controlled world, who is the real murderer who must be convicted?
"This needle and thread are embroidering life and the road. Don't be afraid. Whatever is taken away, I will take it back for you with my own hands."
Intention: True perception does not lie in how many signals from the outside can be received, but in being able to resonate with the one you love deep inside. The beauty of life never lies in never fading, but in having the courage and strength to bloom again after fading.
