Shen Li, a top modern cultural relic restorer, accidentally traveled through time and became a bullied concubine in the Yong'an Marquis Mansion of the Great Zhou Dynasty. She was forced to marry the powerful Regent Xiao Yan, the "Living King of Hell" who was poisoned.
On their wedding night, she relied on the "empathy" talent of a cultural relic restorer to touch the silver hairpin and gain a glimpse of the secret past between her mother and the regent. She also saw through Xiao Yan's vulnerability when he was poisoned. This pair of "desperate mandarin ducks" with their own agendas formed an alliance: she used her ability to restore ancient objects to find clues to detoxify him and solve the puzzle in the court; he used his power as a shield to protect her from gaining a foothold in the treacherous Marquis Mansion and the court.
From testing each other to relying on life and death, Shen Li joins hands with Xiao Yan to uncover the mystery of his life experience in the whirlpool of power and intrigue, and eventually becomes the most precious "legendary artifact" in each other's hands.
