The royal family is locked in secret struggles, and the court is rife with infighting.
Those caught up in the game all seek to bring peace to the realm, but the paths they choose are entirely different.
Childhood friend x newcomer x wooden-headed girl
Jiang Li, a twenty-two-year-old killing machine from the Federation, is accidentally crushed to death during a mission by an experimental subject from an alien transmigration project. A spatial rift hurls her soul into an unfamiliar ancient dynasty.
She is thrown into the body of a five-year-old girl, where she meets two people who will become indispensable to her.
One is Sima Heng, the legitimate prince who was raised among commoners. He believes he indirectly caused her parents' deaths and secretly vows to protect her for the rest of her life. He refuses to keep being at others' mercy or swept along by fate. He will take back everything that belongs to him and give the people a bright future.
The other is Wen Zhuo, the child of her enemy. His kindness slowly fills her hollow heart, so she no longer feels like a soulless shell. She no longer has to rely on killing to prove that she has value.
On one side is the childhood friend who grew up with her and is consumed by guilt. On the other is the newcomer who should have been her enemy, but gave her a new life.
By the time they come to their senses, the three of them have become indispensable to one another: one holds the pieces, one the scales, and one the blade. Together, they become the judges of the world, giving purpose to all under heaven, securing a livelihood for the people, carrying on the lost teachings of the sages, and bringing peace to all generations!
