Lin Qinghe is the eldest daughter of the Lin family, but no one there wants her. After her mother dies young, she grows up timid and is relentlessly bullied by her stepmother and stepsister.
As an adult, she marries Fu Jingshen, the eldest son of the Fu family, whom she has loved since she was young. She willingly gives him the enormous inheritance left by her mother and helps him build the vast Fu Group.
The Fu family rises to become a new power in Shancheng, while Lin Qinghe is plunged into hell. The Fu family beats and berates her, and Fu Jingshen even offers her up as a plaything to various socialites.
Unable to bear the humiliation any longer, Lin Qinghe seizes a chance to flee the Fu family, but Fu Jingshen and her stepsister catch up and kill her. Only as she dies does she learn that Fu Jingshen had long been conspiring with her stepsister. Her marriage had been a sham from beginning to end.
Princess Lin Changyuan of the Great Xia dynasty fought to protect her young brother’s throne, taking on powerful ministers and waging wars across the land. Just as she returned victorious, villains poisoned her, leaving her unconscious. When she opens her eyes again, she finds herself thousands of years in the future, in the body of Lin Qinghe, the eldest daughter of the Lin family.
Sensing Lin Qinghe’s resentment and hatred, Lin Changyuan returns to the Fu family in her identity, determined to avenge Lin Qinghe while searching for a way back to the Great Xia dynasty.
