Twenty years ago, the Shen family, the Duke of the town, was framed and unjustly accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason. The rich family was burned down, and the whole family withered away. Only a piece of broken jade and the legitimate daughter Shen Zhiwei survived by chance.
After several years of wandering, she hid her family identity, took the place of a concubine from a poor family, took the initiative to marry into the situation, and married into the enemy of the Shen family - the Prime Minister Gu's Mansion.
After three years of dormancy in the courtyard, she gathered all her edge and pretended to be meek and cowardly.
Her husband, Gu Yan, resigned from his position as a leader in Beijing and was constrained by his feelings, so he always neglected her. Her mother-in-law was snobbish and harsh, making things difficult for her in every possible way. The rich daughter of the Wen family pressed on her step by step, eroding her status and dignity.
The whole family thought that she was helpless, weak and could be bullied, and that she was a humble wife who could be manipulated by others.
As everyone knows, meekness is her mask and forbearance is her sharp edge.
She used the disputes in the house to cover up, secretly contacted the old department, collected evidence, and weaved a web step by step, waiting for the day when the Gu family would be overthrown and the grievances would be cleared.
Gu Yanci has been aloof and self-possessed for most of his life. He has always hated her for being dull and indifferent, but after spending time together day and night, he completely fell into paranoia and was tempted. Only when his love deepened, he was shocked to know that the person he loved was actually the orphan of the Shen family who was responsible for the blood feud.
The undercurrent in the court was turbulent, but the prince Xiao Heng was the only one who could see through the ruthless character beneath her gentle skin.
The two played a test game and joined forces to break the puzzle of Beijing and resist the wind and rain side by side.
Autumn hunting palace changes, Jin Luan is in court.
An injustice that had been sealed for twenty years was finally brought to light, and the power of the Gu family was overturned.
The brocade court turns to ashes, and the old moon returns to the light.
Love and hate are all vain, and the sea of blood must eventually be paid off.
She stepped on the blood and shed her disguise. She did not ask for a romantic relationship, but only wanted justice for the Zhonglie family.
