When she was eight years old, Chu Mingyu used a koi jade pendant to save Pei Zhao, a hostage who fell off a cliff. However, she accidentally left the jade pendant behind during the pursuit and was picked up by Liu Rushuang, the concubine of the prime minister. Ten years later, Pei Zhao ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and mistakenly made Liu Rushuang a noble concubine. Chu Mingyu, in order to investigate her father's injustice, disguised herself as a man and infiltrated the palace as a stuttering eunuch.
When Chu Mingyu first entered the palace, she bumped into Pei Zhao bathing in a hot spring. The familiar bite mark on her back instantly revealed the past, but Pei Zhao mistook her for an ordinary eunuch. During the day, she clumsily served tea and water in front of the emperor, trying hard to hide her identity; at night, she transformed into a masked man and shuttled through the palace walls, but her plans were always disrupted by the aroma of delicious food wafting from the imperial kitchen. She also unexpectedly met the idle king Pei Ziyu, who had been pretending to be lame for ten years, and the foodie guard Su Miaomiao. The four of them staged scenes of ridiculous farces in the palace.
As the investigation deepened, Chu Mingyu discovered that the bite marks on Pei Zhao's back concealed the secret of the iron mine map, and Liu Rushuang was even involved in the conspiracy of Jinlin Pavilion. When the lies about the fake life and the real substitute are exposed, and when the joyful daily life of barbecue meets the undercurrent of palace intrigue, how should Chu Mingyu uncover the truth of ten years ago in this treacherous situation, and can Pei Zhao recognize his true identity? A wonderful story about misplaced love, family grievances and court affairs begins here.
