share time: 2026-01-02 00:36:24

Yun Heng, son of the former Duke of Zhenguo,化名 "Guice" (Ghost Strategist) to lurk in the imperial court to repay Empress Jiang Zhao for saving his life years ago. He uses espionage, counterintelligence, and other "underhanded tricks" to defuse palace coups and eliminate political enemies for her. However, Jiang Zhao has always seen him as a "ruthless sycophant", even sneering, "What trick are you playing now?" when he took a lethal poison for her. When Yun Heng's true identity is exposed, Jiang Zhao finally realizes that all the "vicious schemes" she detested were actually his life-risking "silent protection"—yet by then, the poison has spread to his lungs, leaving him only seven days to live. Can this deep affection hidden behind "underhanded tricks" be seen clearly by his beloved at the last moment?
