Zhao Lingxi, the seventh princess of Beishuo, has no favor in the palace and no maternal clan to rely on. Asking for a marriage was the only way she found for herself.

She needs someone who won't be pushed around. And King Yongjing Xie Jingchen - the direct descendant of He Yuan, who holds military power, does not form factions, and has no love for power - was the chess player she personally selected.
She thought it was just a chess game.
It wasn't until he blocked the poisonous needle for her at the palace banquet, until he asked in court that "I am willing to bear the responsibility of being a family member", until after he fell off a cliff and disappeared, she rode out of the house and went to the front line in person——
Only then did she realize that the chess game had long been messed up.
He protected her, and she stood by him.

Intention: In troubled times, only the sincerity cannot be calculated.
