The Female County Magistrate of the Tang Dynasty

During the Wu Zhou era, the magistrate of Xincheng County in Jiangnan West Circuit is transferred elsewhere. The area is remote, and its people are known for their fierce temperament, so the other officials all try to avoid the post. Liu Rugui takes it on as a woman. As soon as she arrives, she encounters a strange murder case. A merchant claims that one day he got lost in a valley and met a mysterious man in white. The man said he was one of the 82,000 people on the moon who repaired it, and gave the merchant a dazzling luminous pearl. The pearl was priceless. Two days before it was due to be auctioned, the merchant was found dead in his home, and the mysterious pearl had vanished. Liu Rugui devises a trap to catch the thief who stole the pearl and killed the merchant. But the person she catches isn't the murderer: it's the notorious thief known as Black-Lipped Cicada. A tycoon's sudden death, a weasel spirit possessing someone, a flesh-and-blood bodhisattva… A series of mystery cases, as she peels away layer after layer of fog. From having a sword held to my throat and being forced to stay, to willingly bowing and kneeling, I will be your blade. A woman magistrate × a wandering swordswoman with the soul of a black cat. Theme: Rescue those in dire straits and clear the wrongly accused.
