Shen Qingyi, the prime minister's legitimate daughter, was forced to enter the palace for a draft. She used a book of "Shui Jing Zhu" to see through the emperor's disguise but remained calm. In order to check and balance the court, the new emperor Xiao Yu chose this noble girl who "least understands the rules", but he did not know that this marriage that started as a trial would completely change the fate of two lonely souls.
When the Southern Floods encountered the ancient book on flood control at the bottom of her box, and when the court conspiracy broke through his fragile moment late at night, the boundaries between chess players and chess pieces began to blur. The evidence of the Queen Mother's family collaborating with the enemy, the truth about her father's injustice, and the harem's ruthless plot turn the fragrance of books into a sharp blade. The night she left the palace on a rainy night, she left half a poem in blood; when the palace door opened again, he put the phoenix crown on her with his own hands.
This deep palace cannot trap the real dragon, let alone the awakening phoenix. Let's see how the emperor used his bones to make a ladder, and how the lady held the book of honor as a sword. Together, we create this eternal legend of the emperor and empress that started with calculations but ended up being sincere.
Purpose: The noblest love is to make each other become better selves. Through the process of the two protagonists from testing each other to sincere support, it is shown that even in an environment where power is paramount, sincerity and wisdom can break down identity barriers and achieve the dual perfection of personal growth and national justice.
