Shen Qingjin, the last legitimate princess of the previous dynasty, erased all her identities after the country was shattered, and hid in the streets and alleys as a low-key medical girl.
Xie Linchen, the auxiliary minister with great power in the new dynasty, held half of the military power and was ruthless in killing. All civil and military officials in the dynasty were afraid of him.
In the eyes of the world, she was a helpless ordinary orphan, and he was a cold-blooded hero in troubled times who rebelled against his master. They were two types of people separated by a bloody sea of subjugation, and the monarch and his ministers had different paths.
In drugstores on the streets, deep in palaces and halls, and in the war-torn suburbs, Shen Qingjin suppressed his sharp edge and lived alone, hiding all the hatred for his family and country and the passion of his youth in his heart, relying only on his medical skills to survive.
Later, all the layers of disguise were torn apart, and only then did everyone see clearly——
Shen Qingjin, who looks weak and secluded from the world, hides the forbearance and sobriety carved into the bones of an orphan from a subjugated country;
Xie Linchen, who seems to be indifferent and ruthless, has deep feelings and guilt in his heart that have transcended troubled times and dare not express them openly.
★The ancient saying of cold and Machiavellian tactics, restraint and tolerance of two-way secret love
★Broken mirror, fateful sadomasochism, advanced blank BE aesthetics
★The hatred of family and country blocks love, preferring to hide in the light of swords and machinations
No one knew that this orphan girl who seceded from the world to practice medicine was the only remaining golden branch of the previous dynasty.
Shen Qingjin has long been accustomed to isolating everyone and swallowing the pain of national subjugation alone. She can see through the suffering of others, but she never dares to face her remaining feelings for Xie Linchen.
The powerful minister Xie Linchen, who was respected by thousands of people, was always decisive in killing in the court. The image of the old dynasty's collapse trapped him for countless days and nights, so he could only monopolize the overwhelming power and silently protect her to live safely.
Su Wan, a free and easy medical doctor, is Shen Qingjin's only support in troubled times. She is aware of the entanglement between the two and always silently protects the heroine;
The young and suspicious new emperor Xiao Heng was afraid of Xie Linchen's great achievements and repeatedly used Shen Qingjin to set up traps to check and balance the powerful officials, causing countless disturbances in the court;
The old men of the former dynasty, who were obsessed with restoring the country, kept searching for the princess, forcing Shen Qingjin and Xie Linchen to stand on opposite sides.
The four people have their own concerns, and everyone is wearing a disguise, trying not to be crushed by the troubled times, until a doctor-patient reunion quietly leads to two fateful trajectories separated by a blood feud and entangled for half a lifetime.
In the past, Shen Qingjin always thought that the hatred of her family and country was at the forefront, and she would never be able to show any kindness to those who destroyed her homeland.
It wasn't until she saw Xie Linchen risking his life to protect him again and again in the troubled times that she slowly understood
"Born in troubled times, separated by monarchs and ministers, it is never a fault to fall in love with each other, but we are not born with the qualifications to stay together."
"We all move forward step by step with scars all over our bodies. Fortunately, we meet each other in troubled times, but in the end we cannot escape the fate of our home and country. We can only bury our love in the dust of the years."
Two miserable people trapped in a troubled world redeem each other and torture each other in a chess game of power. The story is cold and restrained throughout, with a bitterness deep in the bones, leaving a lifelong regret that will last for the rest of their lives.
