On the night of the palace coup, all three princes died in the fire. Twelve-year-old Pei Zhao was brought into the palace and became a substitute emperor. Four years later, the sixteen-year-old emperor sat on the dragon throne - all the officials first worshiped the regent and then the emperor.
The regent, Xie Yan, came from a poor family and took charge of the world's military at the age of twenty-eight. He stood up to the emperor not because he wanted to seize the throne - but because he felt that no one was worthy of sitting in that position.
Pei Zhao built an intelligence network under the eyes of the regent and learned to kill with a borrowed knife. Xie Yan discovered during the reform of the court that the young man on the dragon throne was more dangerous and useful than he thought.
From suspicion to temptation, from fighting side by side to breaking up with each other, from "the most dangerous enemy" to the "most deadly weakness" - the five layers of identity secrets are revealed layer by layer, and both people are forced to face the same question: Who am I?
And the answer lies in each other.
An imaginary dynasty, two male protagonists, intrigues and undercurrents, HE.
Intention: The true identity is not origin, but choice.
