**She is a talented concubine, and he is an unparalleled prince. **
**A forbidden love blossoms quietly in the intrigues of the palace... **
During the Kangxi period, Nalan Rongruo and Qiu Yingying, the concubine born to the Lu family, were left out in the Nalan Mansion because of their humble background. She inherited her father's unique talents, but she could only hide them in the boudoir and no one cared about them.
At a poetry meeting in the capital, Qiu Yingying amazed everyone with a self-composed poem, and even attracted the attention of the prince Yinreng who was on tour incognito. The two became acquainted with each other through poetry and had a great time chatting. However, when Qiu Yingying learned his true identity, all the good things became a luxury hope - she was just a concubine, how could she deserve to fall in love with the prince? **
The prince ignored the etiquette and insisted on calling her into the palace to become his literary lady. But deep in the palace, there are dangers everywhere: the plot of the mother-in-law, the jealousy of the crown prince candidate, the eyeing eyes of the courtiers... Qiu Yingying's every step is like walking on thin ice.
As for Yinreng, although he was the crown prince, he was also unable to control himself. The expectations of his father, the struggles of powerful ministers, and the covetousness of his brothers forced him to act step by step. He knew that this relationship would cause huge turmoil, but he still couldn't let go...
**When love meets power, when talent meets conspiracy, can they break through the shackles and stay together for a lifetime? **
