When Xie Zhuo was sixteen years old, he walked out of the culvert and entered the Regent's Palace, using the pseudonym "Ajiu".
What she didn't know was that Xiao Yan recognized her on the first day he entered the house - he had learned swordsmanship from her father Xie Rong for three months when he was sixteen. He approved "not to be alarmed" on the list and waited for her to come to him in person.
Not long after entering the palace, the eldest princess Sima Jun needed to go to the south of the Yangtze River to collect a magical medicine. Her younger brother Sima Zhang was unable to leave the palace, so he chose Xie Zhuo from Xiao Yan to accompany him. A group of people were ambushed on their way south. Xie Zhuo was struggling to deal with it alone. Xiao Yan happened to pass by to rescue the siege. This is the first time the two of them have truly worked side by side outside the palace and on a mission. The trip to Jiangnan established the initial trust between the four of them, and also laid the foundation for their subsequent collaboration.
After returning to Beijing, Xie Zhuo pieced together the truth about her father's unjust case in one case after another - she secretly killed the playboy who harassed her sister in a secret alley, broke into the Dongchang archives at night to steal the original copy of her father's case file, and put together three clues into a complete logical chain in the serial poisoning case. When her sister was taken away by Dongchang, she knelt in front of Xiao Yan and begged him to save her. Xiao Yan pulled her up and said, "Why are you kneeling?" - That was the only time he let her see his bottom line.
In the final battle, Xie Zhuo blocked Han Yu in the deep palace - the man who personally forged evidence of his father's crime. Before Han Yu died, he asked her: "Have you eaten the buns in the alley that year?" She said: "Throw them away." Then she stood up, wiped the knife, turned and left.
Cao Qin was executed, and the injustice was cleared up. On the day Xiao Yan ascended the throne, he put two things in her hand in front of all the officials - the queen's treasure book and the general's seal and ribbon.
"She is my queen and my general."
Xie Zhuo looked at the two things in her hands and remembered that she was unable to catch anything when her father was taken away when she was twelve years old. Now she caught it. Caught both. She looked up, took a step to the side, and stood next to him.
The wind outside the palace blew in, and she didn't look back.
