Meng Lijun is an extremely talented woman. She is not only as beautiful as a flower, but also talented and proficient in poetry, calligraphy, chess, calligraphy and painting. However, she had a bad fate. She was supposed to marry her childhood sweetheart Huangfu Shaohua, but due to the jealousy and frame-up of the traitor Liu Kuibi, the family suffered misfortune and the marriage was hindered.
In a series of changes, in order to avoid persecution, Meng Lijun decided to disguise herself as a man, change her name to "Li Junyu", leave her hometown, and embark on the road to the imperial examination in order to find out the truth and clear her family's grievances. With her extraordinary intelligence, Meng Lijun eventually became the top scholar in high school and was even appreciated by the emperor, who entrusted her with important responsibilities and became an important minister in the court.
At the same time, Huangfu Shaohua also entered the court for various reasons and became a subordinate of Meng Lijun (Li Junyu at this time). Although the two were close at hand, Huangfu Shaohua did not recognize his lover because Meng Lijun's identity was concealed. In this process, Meng Lijun relied on her wisdom to help Huangfu Shaohua and the righteous party many times, and gradually revealed the true face of the traitor.
After some twists and turns, Meng Lijun's true identity was finally revealed. With the emperor's pardon and the help of everyone, she was able to regain her daughter's body and reunited with Huangfu Shaohua, clearing her family's grievances and finally getting married.
