Lin Zhao, a former crown prince's companion framed and demoted to a commoner, planned to live out his life in seclusion. But when Empress Li Weiyang, newly ascended to the throne, faces the desperate crisis of powerful officials' rebellion and border uprisings, he is secretly recalled to the palace. This man, once dismissed as an "abandoned piece" by the royal family, actually harbors extraordinary talents—he helps the empress unravel court conspiracies, solving everything from fake imperial edicts to military pay corruption cases, while also evading pursuit by old enemies. As they go from mutual suspicion to gradual understanding, they uncover the truth about his exile: the empress deliberately set up the "abandoned piece" scheme to save his life! When the kingdom's chess game reaches a life-or-death point, can the abandoned piece become the key to turning the tide? Are they partners working for the kingdom, or is there unspoken affection between them?
