On the day Shen Yunzhi entered the palace, her father only left her one sentence: The threshold of the Yangxin Palace is inward.
The daughter of a fifth-rank official, once she entered the palace, she became a chess piece in her father's career. There is a red mark on her wrist that will never fade away, and there is an old case hidden in her sleeve that cannot be opened.
In the deepest part of the Forbidden City, there is a queen who has been waiting for twelve years.
The Empress Dowager locked her up for twelve years. What is locked is not a door, but an obsession - waiting for a phoenix perched in the phoenix tree.
The phoenix does not come. What came was a magpie.
\\\\\\\"The magpie does not live on the phoenix, but the magpie builds its nest.\\\\\\\"
Two locked women looked at each other across a sycamore tree: one was waiting for the key outside the door, and the other was waiting for the end of her sentence in her life.
What she wants to open is not only the lock of Tangyin Pavilion, but also an old case that has been suppressed for more than ten years, and - her own life.
The phoenix never settles on the phoenix tree. But magpies can build nests.
Concept: How can a "locked" woman not become another "locked" woman.
