In the midst of the prosperity and undercurrent of the Chu Dynasty, Liu Yiyi, the third young lady of the Liu Mansion, decided to escape from marriage on a dark and windy night because she did not want to become a house filler for a wealthy businessman in Zhenxi. This escape was like a pebble thrown into a lake, causing ripples.
On the way to escape, she unexpectedly meets the mysterious man Su Ran. The two rode together, laughing and supporting each other as they embarked on an unknown journey. I thought it was just an accidental intersection between two people from far away, but I didn't expect that the thread of fate would become tightly entangled from then on.
Traveling to a prosperous town, at the Yuelai Inn, they witnessed bullies robbing a common girl. Liu Yiyi hates evil and Su Ran has extraordinary skills. They act righteously, but they don't expect that the bully is actually the nephew of the county magistrate. The county magistrate confuses right and wrong and wants to punish them. At the critical moment, Prince An's prince Xiao Yichen descends from the sky to turn the tide.
The appearance of Xiao Yichen is like a key, opening the door to the capital and adding a touch of palace color to the story. Liu Yiyi and Su Ran followed Xiao Yichen to Beijing. Amidst the changes in the capital, they not only had to face complex court struggles, but also solved the mystery of each other's life experiences.
In the adventures along the way, Liu Yiyi gradually grew from a fragile young lady who escaped from marriage to a woman with a righteous heart. Su Ran's identity also inadvertently revealed clues, and her relationship with Liu Yiyi became deeper and deeper. Xiao Yichen also fell into emotional entanglements during his interactions with them. The love and hatred between the three people, in the intertwining of the palace and the rivers and lakes, interpret a gripping legend.
