It tells the story of Shen Zhaoxue, the legitimate daughter of a family of poisonous doctors, who tragically died at the hands of her husband Xiao Linyuan in her previous life. More than 300 members of the Shen family were beheaded. Unexpectedly, she was reborn on her wedding night. No toxin was found in the supposedly fatal Hexin wine, and she was shocked to realize that there was a shocking conspiracy behind her death in her previous life. In order to seek revenge, she disguised herself as the innocent daughter who was madly in love with Xiao Linyuan, and set up camp in Prince Xiao's palace, secretly laying a trap of poison and wits.
Xiao Linyuan, as a powerful uncle of the emperor, is a cold prince on the surface, but secretly executes officials in the name of "Scavenger". The black jade earring "A Ci" in his left ear hides cyber mysteries and can monitor brain waves and analyze lies. A strange "pain symbiosis" binds Shen Zhaoxue to him - the heart-piercing pain she endures will tear his nerves apart at the same time; the fatal crisis he encounters will also make her suffocate in the bloody hallucination. When Shen Zhaoxue discovers Xiao Qingyue, the eldest princess who looks similar to herself, lying in an ice coffin deep in the dungeon, and when Prime Minister Xie Yunlang's desire for manipulation under his hypocritical mask is gradually exposed, a hunting game involving the secrets of the family and country and the grievances of past lives is officially launched.
Xie Yunlang set up an "AI torture hall" to convict Shen Zhaoxue, but she tested the poison on herself in the courtroom to activate the golden lotus of her life that was sleeping in her blood. When the golden lotus purifies the evil spirit of the "Gu God", and when Xiao Linyuan cuts off the shackles of manipulated memory, the two reveal their past love in the trial of blood and fire: he was once her bamboo horse under the peach blossom tree, and she once spent all her efforts to save him. In the end, Xie Yunlang was imprisoned in the hell of repentance he had woven, while Shen Zhaoxue and Xiao Linyuan put aside their hatred under the rising sun and continued to write their fate separated by the conspiracy with the promise of the rest of their lives.
