Su Wantang, a concubine in the capital of the Dajing Dynasty, married the third prince Gu Zhao, who was rumored to be disabled, on behalf of her eldest sister Su Wanqing due to the harsh treatment of her aunt, the Wang family. On their wedding night, she discovered that Gu Zhao was not only healthy but also had a hidden edge, and fell in love with her at first sight. From then on, Gu Zhao used the disguise of being "crippled" to keep a low profile, while helping Su Wantang beat his biological mother and sisters in the face, resolve the crisis in the family silk shop, and at the same time, he was fighting for the throne. Su Wantang grew up as a cautious Cinderella, but was gradually healed by Gu Zhao's affection. She won the favor of the people in the capital with her skills in making sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, and eventually joined hands with Gu Zhao to ascend the throne and became the most favored queen.
