On the surface, she is a poor relation living under the roof of the Xie family. In truth, she is the daughter of Master Xie's mistress.
Her cousin Xie Ci, who has coveted her for years, is determined to have her.
Madam Xie, the only one who knows she isn't Master Xie's daughter, wants her dead.
The young Master Li, whom she falls in love with at first sight, says he wants to marry her.
Caught between Madam Xie's ruthless tactics and Xie Ci's forceful advances, what is she to do?
Just as she finally decides to marry Li Chengle, she has a strange dream.
In it, Li Chengle gives her to Lou Yansheng, the prime minister, a man with many peculiar tastes. Imprisoned as his concubine, she suffers a fate worse than death. Then the scene shifts, and Xie Ci is nuzzling close to her, their clothes in disarray...
When she wakes, she is shaken and at a loss over what to do.
Fortunately, he comes.
Ling Muyang has been reborn. By a stroke of luck, he finally finds the woman he rescued from a crowd of refugees in his previous life.
Now she lowers her eyes and weeps softly. She is no longer the wretched, disheveled figure he remembers, nor does she have that lifeless temperament. Now, she is simply a sweet young girl who clings to him and acts coquettish, her eyes bright as stars. She is more full of life than he has ever seen her.
