Her name is Shen Siyuan. Missing thoughts, far away.
Fifteen years ago, the whole family of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion was wiped out. Eight-year-old Shen Yan was pushed back into the secret passage by her mother, with the muffled sound of one hundred and thirty-seven heads falling to the ground behind her. Fifteen years later, she became the general of the Northern Territory, commanding 50,000 black cavalry troops. She had a shallow scar on her right cheek, and her right hand was always wrapped in an old bandage. She buried "Shen Yanhui" in the loess and carved "Shen Siyuan" on every boundary monument - finding out the truth about the family's destruction was the only reason for her to live.
Her name is Gu Niangui. Nian is the thought of missing, return is the return of return.
Twenty-four years old, he has been dormant in the cold palace for eighteen years. The mother-in-law, Xiao Yuehua, was given a glass of poisonous wine by the Queen Mother to die, with her name on her lips when she died. From the age of six, she learned to live with a smile—smiling as she treated the palace maid to plead for mercy, smiling as she hid five thousand intelligence bases under the bed, and smiling as she laid 172 hidden stakes on the chess game map. Bringing down the Queen Mother is her only goal in life.
A heavy rain hit the Ancestral Temple for the first time.
She was punished to kneel in the rain. She took off her black cloak and put it on her shoulders as she passed by. "It's cold on the ground, get up." He took three steps and then turned back: "What's your name?" "Gu Niangui." "Sitting far away. Thinking about far away and thinking back - it's just one sentence together."
Neither of them knew at that moment that these words would last throughout each other's lives.
Initially, she needed her military power and her intelligence network. Each other is a chess piece. There are no strategies left on the chessboard, and every word in the letter is tested. But there is love deep in the chess game - knowing clearly that the opponent is using me, the credibility is real, the laughter is real, and the heartbeat is also real when they huddle together in the cold palace to keep warm at night.
However, their enemies are too strong. The Queen Mother has been in charge of the government for twenty-three years, and her eyes and ears are everywhere in the court. Every step is on the edge of a knife, and every joint effort may be exposed. The bloody battle in the north, the Queen Mother's hidden stakes, the sacrificed comrades, the wet nurse who bit her tongue and committed suicide, and the female officer who sent the information alone - the price of victory was too heavy.
"After revenge is over, we will go to the north. Build a house and plant a field of poppies. I will cook porridge for you in the morning and warm your feet at night. The general will not do this anymore - I will be your husband."
"It's agreed. No one is allowed to default on the payment."
When the chess game ended, someone was waiting in the flower field in the north. Someone folded the three hundred and twenty-seven letters and pressed them under the ginkgo tree. Every autumn night, I write a letter and burn it to the sky: "Ayuan, the poppies have bloomed. I read them for you. This year there are three thousand - one thousand more than when you were here."
They agreed that no one would default on their debt.
Purpose: Two women who lost their loved ones under the crushing power of power, became pawns for each other but developed a deep love for each other. They chose between revenge and protection to help the world - using the weapons in their hands and the strategies in their hearts to fight for a way out for everyone who was crushed like them in troubled times.
