The late emperor suddenly passed away, the court was overturned, the throne was vacant, and the government and the public were in turmoil. Concubine Rong took the opportunity to control the palace and led the imperial army to surround the palace and force her to take the throne. She issued a false edict in an attempt to depose the direct descendant and establish a concubine, which stirred up trouble in the city.
The Queen of the Middle Palace, Song Yunshu, has lived in the deep palace for ten years. She has always been cold, self-possessed, calm and orderly. She only relies on the Song family's noble family status to protect the young prince and cling to the prince's slim chance of survival. But she has no strategic character and no military power in her hands. She is trapped in a shocking death situation, and her advancement and retreat are all trapped in a prison.
The palace steps were covered with wind and snow, and Chen Wang Jiang Jinchen returned to the capital from thousands of miles away with a hundred thousand border cavalry in hand, breaking the deadlock in the court. He was the late emperor's biological brother, the iron-blooded King of Hell who made the government and the public fearful and decisive in killing, and he was also her brother-in-law who could not be surpassed in terms of status.
The black python robe was stained by the wind and snow. He held her wrist and made a resounding promise: "I will keep the prince safe and keep you safe for the rest of your life. You will stand by me."
At first, she thought it was just a power and sex deal where everyone got what they needed, a helpless solution in a desperate situation. Little did he know that in this powerful chess game, he hid the obsession he had with Merlin for the first time in ten years, and the deep feelings he dared not express openly for several years.
The status of uncle and sister-in-law is a worldly chasm, the rules of the palace are many shackles, and the dispute over imperial power is an abyss. But countless times of ups and downs and desperate situations finally shattered her ten-year pretense of being cold and self-possessed.
In troubled times, the chess game is full of power and intrigue. Jiang Jinchen wanted to calm down the troubled times and control the country, but he also wanted to hold her in his arms and stay with her every year. The embers in the deep palace burned away the glitz, and the mountains and rivers were thousands of miles away. In the end, the two of them went side by side, sharing the honor and disgrace, and staying together forever.
Purpose: Based on the chess game of the palace in troubled times, it tells the story of the heroine Song Yunshu who breaks free from the shackles of the palace, breaks the shackles of worldly status, sticks to her true heart, grows step by step, and transforms from passive self-preservation to active control of her destiny. The male and female protagonists rush to save each other in the disputes over imperial power and the game between the government and the opposition. They abandon secular prejudices and shackles of identity, and work side by side to calm down the chaos in the court and safeguard the peace of the country. It explains that true love is never dependent on fetters, but a strong mutual support of equal strength, two-way checks and balances, and sharing the wind and rain, demonstrating the two-way achievements of family and country's righteousness and sincerity in troubled times.
