The two met each other when they were young. They were classmates in college when they were young and fell in love with each other. Subsequently, the Shen family was ordered to guard the border. Su Qingci's family suddenly encountered changes, and the family was wronged and executed. The two were forced to separate and cut off all contact.
Seven years later, Shen Jinghan returned to Beijing with great military success, only to find that the gentle young man he once was had become an unfathomable prime minister at the center of the power vortex.
Above the court, the civil and military forces seemed to be in tit-for-tat opposition. The emperor deliberately provoked conflicts between the generals and made them check and balance each other; hundreds of officials stood in line to oppose each other and sow discord everywhere. Shen Jinghan didn't understand Su Qingci's cold sophistication and hated his way of dealing with powerful people; Su Qingci was afraid of Shen Jinghan's sincerity and deliberately kept away from him, not daring to reveal even half of his old feelings.
Secretly, the two have already had a tacit understanding of each other. Shen Jinghan secretly protected Su Qingci, who was framed by court officials. Su Qingci strategized in the court, raised food and grass for the frontline soldiers, and cleared away grievances.
Gradually reveal the truth of the past: the Su family's injustice was planned by the current emperor, just to eliminate the loyal and good forces of the previous dynasty. Su Qingci entered the court to worship the prime minister, seeking power step by step, just for revenge and overturning the case; the emperor was afraid of the Shen family's military power, and secretly suppressed the northern Xinjiang army for many years, trying to get rid of Shen Jinghan with the help of barbarians.
In the later period, the generals will join forces to put aside the superficial antagonism, work together to clean up the traitors in the court, and fight against the suspicious emperor. In the game of power and intrigue, the emotions of young people are revived, and they help each other redeem themselves.
In the end, the civil strife was quelled, the foreign enemies were repulsed, and Dajing was stabilized. But the two of them are at the pinnacle of power, and it is difficult for the monarch and his ministers to get along with each other, and it is difficult to stay in love. They knew and protected each other all their lives, but in the end they were trapped in a troubled court, hiding their love in their hearts, and not ending up well.
