Huan Wei is a temporary employee in the Heavenly Court. Hoping to land a permanent position, she rotates through internships in the Court's various departments.
But luck is never quite on her side. At the Hall of Incense and Blessings, she's punished for carelessly tying people's red strings of fate. At the Pavilion of the Seven Immortals, she gets caught up in the Seventh Princess's romance and is banished to the mortal realm.
Yet every time she's on Earth, she runs into that same man.
The first time they meet, he's a young Taoist priest who slays demons.
The second time, he's a frail, sickly beauty.
The third time, he's a well-behaved baby sleeping soundly in bed.
Later on, that man says he wants to marry her.
Huan Wei is so startled she nearly reverts to her true form.
But the man says, “I want you to be my empress!”
Huan Wei thinks it over. It's a proper, permanent position, and the only one of its kind in the mortal world. She nods and agrees!
