In the snowstorm in northern Xinjiang, the rivers and lakes are in turmoil, and a reward order sets off an undercurrent - the imperial court secretly orders to hunt down the remnants of the rebels. Wherever Xuan Yingsi goes, not a blade of grass grows.
The wandering escort "Qing Niangzi" used to travel around the world without fighting with others, but due to a conspiracy, she was involved in the pursuit. She thought she could take the opportunity to escape, but she bumped into the blade of Pei Chengxiao, the commander of the Black Eagle Division, in the dark night.
Pei Chengxiao was ordered to hunt down his old troops, and he should have arrested and executed her, but after seeing her identity clearly, he chose to stand still. She became prey and a living chess piece.
Amidst the layers of killing, she was taking steps, while he waited for the wind to blow.
Can the lonely bird caught in the trap take advantage of the situation to break the situation? The chessboard is set, and it's up to the traveler to fend for himself.
Intent: A story about survival, struggle and self-awakening. Facing the changes in his family and country, Li Yuanwei is not a hero destined by fate, but a person who continues to choose, grow, and play games in difficult situations. She is not a chess piece waiting to be saved, but a chess player, who finally breaks free from the shackles of fate with her wisdom and will.
