A legend of revenge with the wind and moon as its blade, a forbidden love bred in power and intrigue.
She is Liu Rusi, the newly promoted chief of the Jiaofang Division. She is naturally charming and beautiful, and is the most beautiful person in Bianjing. Overnight, she went from being a daughter of a general to becoming a prostitute. She set up the "Three Passes of Silk and Bamboo" to deal with the powerful, just to find out the bloody injustice case that killed everyone ten years ago and to find her young brother who was lost in the rebellion.
He is Yun Yi, the second son of the Yun family, a wealthy businessman in Bianjing. He is cynical on the surface, but he hides his secret. Everyone knows that he is obsessed with beauty and spends a lot of money, but they don't know that he has already laid out a chess game and turned this romantic field into a Shura field of intrigue.
A deal closely connects the fate of two people. He helped her seek revenge and find her relatives, and she weaved an intelligence network for him. In the cooperation and utilization, the two cold hearts gradually get closer, but they are also separated by many barriers due to their identities and calculations.
At the same time, the Qingliu daughter Su Yan broke into Yun Yi's world with her heart as bright as the bright moon; the Taiwei's son Gu Changyuan's domineering plunder, the Prince's secret invitation from the East Palace... All forces competed and rose and fell in the quagmire of this prosperous imperial capital.
When the dust-laden truth is revealed, when the emotional balance begins to tilt, and when the stormy waves in the court are suddenly captured, can they protect each other in the treacherous conspiracy, and can they find a way out in this cannibalistic city of Bianjing?
This is a soul-stirring symphonic poem about power and romance. It tells how a charming orphan girl joins forces with a shady businessman to create huge waves in the center of the empire.
Purpose: The novel uses "revenge" and "power plot" as its skeleton, and deeply explores the alienation of human nature by power, the conflict between justice and interests, and the powerlessness and resistance of individuals in the times.
