Xiao Huaijin, Marquis of Pingyang, grew up at the Crown Prince’s side and commanded a mighty army. To avenge himself, he was forced to marry Shen Tangwan, the daughter of his enemy.
While serving in the army, he came across Lu Jiangwan, who was disguised as a man to make a living. Though dressed as a man, she couldn’t hide her graceful beauty. She took an arrow for Xiao Huaijin in battle and was injured, so he brought her back to the marquis’s residence that very night to recover. This special bond sparked Shen Tangwan’s jealousy, and she did everything she could to drive Lu Jiangwan away. Lu Jiangwan left the estate and opened an apothecary to make a living on her own.
By chance, Shen Tangwan discovered that Lu Jiangwan was a woman, making her even more jealous and prompting her to hatch one vicious plot after another. The Crown Prince also admired Lu Jiangwan and kept finding ways to get close to her.
While protecting the emperor during an attack, Xiao Huaijin finally learned his true identity, only to become a target of those lurking in the shadows!
In a desperate moment, Shen Tangwan struck ruthlessly and pushed Lu Jiangwan off a cliff. Lu Jiangwan lost her memory, carrying Xiao Huaijin’s child, but Crown Prince Yan Junyao, who had long coveted her, secretly caused her to miscarry. He gave her a new identity and sent her into the palace for the selection of consorts, ultimately paving her way to the position of Crown Princess.
A blood feud, tangled affections, and political intrigue collide. When the woman he loves, now without her memories, is forced to become his brother’s consort, how will he choose between the realm and love?
