The once-glorious Zhen Guo General's family was brutally exterminated. The sole survivor, heir Cheng Shao, escaped death and spent a decade consumed by injustice and vengeance, walking alone through darkness. Now, he returns to the capital disguised as the enigmatic "Bai Yi."

Ji Sui, legitimate daughter of a scholarly noble house, enters the treacherous world of court politics to uncover the truth behind her mother's mysterious death. When a series of murders entangle their fates, they begin to unravel a conspiracy buried deep beneath the capital's glittering surface.

Together, they journey across provinces, solving cold cases and dismantling dangerous plots, inching closer to the truth behind the massacre that shattered Cheng Shao's world. As justice is finally served and past wounds begin to heal, their wedding approaches - until the groom shocks everyone by revealing his true identity: "Pleased to meet you all. I am Cheng Shao... also known as Bai Yi."
