share time: 2026-02-28 12:35:45

The entire Zhenguo General's Mansion was wrongfully executed. Shen Zhao, the sole survivor, disguises himself as a menial guard to infiltrate the residence of the Northern Marquis—the mastermind behind the frame-up—to clear his family's name. One night, he catches Su Wan, the Marquis's "sickly beauty" daughter (rumored to be too frail to withstand a breeze), sneaking through secret documents. To his shock, this "weak lady" is actually a spy investigating court injustices! From mutually suspicious "fake-identity partners," they fight side by side to survive the hidden dangers in the mansion, gradually uncovering the truth about the massacre. Just as Shen Zhao prepares to strike back, he learns Su Wan's true identity: the late emperor's orphan. Their enemy is not just the Northern Marquis, but a usurper coveting the throne! And their relationship, from the sweetness of tentative exploration, turns into a deep, life-and-death love where "you protect the country, I protect you"—with twists coming faster than the flash of a blade.
