A wooden chopstick was nailed through the throat.
In the pool of blood, someone spit out a fatal rumor——
There are still living people in Prince Yu's Mansion.
In the early years of the founding of the country, the powerful Prime Minister Gaotai controlled the government, taxation was as harsh as a knife, and border troubles were as fierce as fire. Zhongliang was redressed, and the murder of the former Prince Yu was classified as "collaboration and treason", and no one dared to mention it again.
Eighteen years later, Xiao Jamran returned to Lanzhou, Jiangnan.
He turned his hatred into a web: none of the eight killers would die well.
But what he was looking for was far more than a reckoning.
There is a medicine shop owner in Lanzhou City, Lin Yaohua.
She is bright and flamboyant, loves to win but hates to lose. She speaks loudly to all the talented people in the city, but when she turns around, she can hand a bag of incense and medicine to the people on the sick bed in the south of the city.
She didn't know - the "safety buckle" she wore close to her body was not safe; there was a pair of twin phoenix blood jades hidden in it, which could quietly "point the way" in the dark, and could also let the phantom of the phoenix illuminate the ruins at a certain moment.
When the Chishui River in the south of the city dries up and bottoms out, the mud cracks into cuts, and the dark red turbid water looks like solidified blood;
When the alchemy waste turned into poison, the murder case rolled out of the river like a ball of thread;
When the "water ghost" was executed silently, even the mud between his fingernails became testimony——
Xiao Jingran finally determined: this pool of water in Lanzhou does not lead to a case, but to a hand that changes everything.
He draws her into the game, but she is in no hurry to believe in "fate."
She wants to know more:
——Why is it her?
——Why do those people would rather infect the whole city with the disease than hide a name?
——And why was the person who praised her as a "princess" so perfect that it looked like an elaborate rehearsal?
The truth is not the end, it is another execution.
When close friends turn against each other and benefactors turn against each other; when "manifest destiny" becomes a bargaining chip for everyone; when the answer you try your best to grab, in turn requires you to burn the evidence with your own hands——
Do you want revenge or the throne?
What do you want is redemption, or do you want to learn to use lies to complete your coronation?

2. The hero and heroine in the early stage: happy enemies + detective partners; the later stage: soul accomplices + political allies.
3. The ending is extremely shocking, with strict logic and many foreshadowings. Please be sure to watch it until the end!

This picture is very touching, especially the big net section. I am waiting to see Prime Minister Gao be brought down.
I just like this kind of taste. It's the most interesting when two strong people do things together. My wife's writing is fluent, and I can feel Lin Yaohua's playful and cute demeanor. The little girl of the Lin family is like a free little oriole. I am so curious about the development of the story. I will squat here for a while, waiting for the scene between Yishou Yaohua and Jingran. Madam, don't be tired, but don't rest either🥺
