What Jiang Qingzhi has learned best in the Gu family over the years is not to act nice.
Because she is good-natured.
What she really knows how to do is pretend to be cold, pretend to be tough, and pretend to be fearless in killing people.
After all, she was just an orphan girl.
If she didn't pretend to be tougher, she and her aunt would have been trampled to death long ago.
*
But my aunt still died.
She swallowed the deposed emperor's rejuvenation pill, scratched her eighteen-year-old face with her own hands, and died in the Gu family for her.
The way her aunt left her to survive was to return to Beijing in the name of the deposed emperor.
The Jiang family is full of grievances, and only through his name can they have a chance to see the light of day again.
Jiang Qingzhi has been pretending for more than ten years. In the past, she was pretending to be brave.
But what needs to be installed now is the emperor's bones.
But she happened to bump into Mo Congxu.
*
Mo Congxu hated others pretending to be in front of him the most in his life.
Pretending to be a wise minister, pretending to be loyal, pretending to be loving, everyone pretends to be high-sounding.
The more similar he pretended to be, the more he wanted to tear off this layer of skin and take a look.
So what he likes to do most is to peel off that layer of disguise with his own hands,
Looking at people reveals the truest greed, cowardice and unbearability underneath.

Until one day, a young girl came to the Forbidden City, and she opened her mouth and called him "good nephew".
Ridiculous, outrageous, but also extremely interesting.
So he simply went along with the flow and pretended to give up his position to invite her into the game. He just wanted to see what was hidden under her skin?
But later he discovered that her courage was just an act, and her fierceness was also an act.
She wanted to pretend, but she let him see the truth beneath her skin.
Mo Congxu hated hypocritical people the most in his life, but for the first time, he hoped that someone would not be so true.
Because the more genuine she is, the more he wants to take possession of the sincerity underneath.
Intention: Sincerity for sincerity
