share time: 2025-07-11 00:30:10

Ruthless Empress Li Shiyao plots to eliminate her husband and secure power for her future heir, while cunning General Shi Xuejing conspires to kill her and commandeer her mighty army. Within gilded palace walls, they wage a vicious game of wits—she hides daggers beneath feigned pregnancy, he poisons ceremonial wine; she allies with enemies to weave a treacherous web, he burns cities to shatter her schemes. Each night of forced matrimony becomes an espionage battlefield where deadly plots lurk beneath fleeting tenderness. When their unborn child becomes the ultimate pawn in their power struggle, a single question remains: In this high-stakes duel of love and betrayal, will the final checkmate claim the throne... or their hearts?
