He had all the power in the world, but he bowed down for her again and again; she relied on others, but on the edge of the knife, she grew up to be as sharp as him.
He is Xiao Heng, the regent of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He is cold-blooded and ruthless, feared by the whole court like a tiger. He has never bowed his head to anyone in his life. She is the orphan of her mentor, Shen Zhiyi, who has been raised in his house for seven years as his "sister-in-law". She may seem docile, but she has a sharp edge hidden in her bones.
His father, Shen Wenqian, was impeached for embezzling Mo Caoyin and was framed as "collaborating with the enemy". His entire family was executed. She became the last orphan named Shen in the world. He protects her and dotes on her in the name of his brother, and swallows "like" back into his belly over and over again when no one is around - his status is the shield that protects her, and it is also the prison that traps the two of them.
However, she turned her grievances into strength in the face of adversity: managing treasury, auditing accounts, studying medicine, and strategizing, fighting every single thing with her own hands. Until the layers of the old Caoyin case were peeled back: the real murderer "Mu Yan" actually pointed to the current Empress Cui. The missing Caoyin was a shocking conspiracy to support private soldiers and seek the throne. Holding the evidence that her father had sacrificed his life for, she stepped into the whirlpool of the entire court.
The superior man bends his back for her, and the orphan girl shines his sword for him. When the name of "brother and sister" is finally shattered, what she wants is to overturn half of the sky together.
Through mountains of swords and seas of fire, we will walk side by side until the end - bow your head as a minister, and live up to your expectations in this life.
Intention: Those in power bow their heads for her and grow in adversity.
