After the fake heiress Xing Dongyue is kicked out of her wealthy family, she takes over the supermarket her biological parents are on the verge of losing.

She unexpectedly discovers a pickle jar that connects the past and present, and meets a down-on-his-luck member of an ancient royal family.

The Crown Prince of the Great Ye dynasty failed in his bid for the throne. Not only has he been exiled to the frontier with a broken leg, but he has only a handful of old and wounded soldiers at his side.

Just as he's waiting to die, a goddess descends from the heavens.

She not only heals his leg, but also sends him supplies and teaches him new tactics to defeat the enemy, along with how to win people's hearts using novel goods.

To repay her, the Crown Prince offers her a trove of antiques and helps her build medicinal herb and cashmere factories in ancient times. Using their ability to exchange goods, the two make money on both sides and quietly build their strength.

Xing Dongyue not only turns her family's supermarket around and grows it into a thriving business, but also brings Chinese medicine and cashmere to the world stage, becoming the richest woman in the country.

A tyrannical emperor rules with brutality, and rebel kings rise up across the land. The realm is in ruins, foreign armies stand at the borders, and natural disasters leave the people starving.

With supplies from her, the Crown Prince defeats the foreign powers and rebel kings, absorbing their troops along the way. He kills the tyrant, successfully ascends the throne, and unifies the realm.

With the new dynasty established, everything must be rebuilt. The newly crowned emperor often writes to the goddess, seeking advice on governing the country, repelling foreign threats, curing the people's epidemics, and establishing academies to train talent...

At the end of one letter, the young emperor nervously asks, “I am willing to offer my realm as your bride price and beg you, Goddess, to marry into Great Ye as its empress, so we can bring peace to the nation and its people. What do you say?”

Later, the history books record: When the Great Ye dynasty was buffeted by storms, a goddess descended from the heavens. Two sage rulers governed together, living in harmony like a perfectly matched couple.
