Song Qing, the Marquis of Zhenbei, became famous at a young age and served in the army for ten years. His iron-blooded skills shocked the court. However, due to an old case, he was forced to return to Beijing to report on his duties, and he was involved in a deeper whirlpool of power desire. Gu Yan, the editor of the Hanlin Academy, came from a poor family, used his pen as his blade, was talented but had a cold temperament, and was regarded as a candidate for the emperor's close ministers. The two had no intersection at all, but they were forcibly tied together because of an imperial edict to "try old cases together." One is the iron-blooded marquis who holds a lot of troops and plays cards unconventionally, and the other is a gentle and gentle civil servant who is careful and considerate every step of the way. Above the court, they are "colleagues" who test each other; in the undercurrent, they become the only people who can trust each other. The old case involves a wide range of things, including the late emperor's edict, the prince's heir apparent, border secrets, and even the hidden pasts of the two men. Song Qing protected him, but she didn't know that Gu Yan was not as weak as he appeared. Gu Yan helped him break the situation, and gradually saw through the tenderness and scars under his cold and hard shell. When the swords and swords intertwined with the machinations of pen and ink, and the righteousness of family and country entangled with the love of their children, they got closer to the truth step by step in the turbulent court situation, and also got closer to each other step by step. This is a chess game in which one's life is at stake, and it is also a deep love that cannot be tolerated in the world, but is unforgettable.
