Shen Zhao waited for ten years in the cold palace, waiting for Xiao Lie, the son of a criminal general who was abandoned by the court.
He used the truth as bait and the unjust case as a contract to tie Xiao Lie onto his ship. Faking death, escaping, running for thousands of miles - every move was calculated by him.
But he failed to account for two things:
First, Xiao Lie knew he was being used, but still turned around and came back to carry him.
Second, he made a move on his own.
From the cold palace to the border, what he wants to overturn is not only his father's wasted death, but also a tampered world.
And what Xiao Lie wanted from beginning to end was only him.
But can he afford it?
Intention: Two people who have been destroyed by power will not become villains because of suffering. They will uphold justice and reshape the world while supporting each other.
