Vengeful ghosts killing people, a goddess ascending to immortality...
One strange, baffling case after another was solved by Lin Wangshu.
Ghosts and gods are impossible to see, yet some people used their names to toy with human hearts and conceal the truth.
An accident branded Lin Wangshu, a sheltered young lady raised deep within the inner quarters, as the daughter of a vengeful ghost.
To clear her mother's name and find her father's killer, Lin Wangshu followed every clue and cracked the murder case.
As more and more cases came her way, Lin Wangshu came to realize that more tragic and terrifying than the corpses was the humanity behind them.
With her frail body, she put herself in danger to seek the truth.
She confronted criminals and sought justice for the dead.
Step by step, she grew into a renowned female detective in the capital.
Gu Yanliang had read every great book under heaven and traveled thousands of miles across the land since childhood.
But no book and no person had ever told him that a delicate, frail young lady could uncover the truth amid shifting schemes and peril.
The admiration he felt when they first met turned into deep affection.
Everyone said he was devoted to Lin Wangshu, but even he felt it was not enough.
He was willing to stake his life on securing a bright future for Lin Wangshu.
In the midst of a heavy snowfall, he came to stand before her, covered in wounds.
"Through mountains of blades and seas of fire, to the ends of heaven and earth, I'll face it all with you."
Tears welled in Lin Wangshu's eyes, blurring her vision. All she could hear was what Gu Yanliang had said to the emperor.
"There are many women in this vast realm who are content to stay within their homes. She is not the only one. I will not confine her to the inner quarters. I only want her to spread her wings and soar to great heights."
A frail but stubborn young lady x a gentle, attentive, hard-working male caretaker.
