On the night when the palace maid Xiaoman disappeared, the queen Wen Zhao walked into her bath with a knife.
What she was waiting for was not an assassin, but a beauty brought back to the palace by the king himself.
The beauty Feiyao stood in the water, her eyes were golden, and a shadow that should not belong to a human was trailing behind her. She can smell desire, and can also make people see the things they are most reluctant to let go of in this life.
Wen Zhao should have killed her. But they found a fox bone, an unlit lamp, and the names of seventeen missing palace maids at the bottom of the pool.
One is the person who is best at turning herself into a queen, and the other is a fox who never admits that he can love anyone. They test each other and use each other, and in the desire lamp, salt case and royal power, they gradually see the sides of each other that they least want to show to others.
Later, Wen Zhao found out that his seal was stamped on the military order issued by Xueyuan Fire twelve years ago.
Feiyao put the knife against the side of her neck:
"Wen Zhao, next time we meet, I will kill you first."
Wen Zhao said: "Okay."
——They use desire as a lamp and sincerity as a blade to burn down an old dynasty together.
Concept: In the coercion of power and desire, two women admit their scars, bear their choices, and learn not to replace love with possession.
