In her previous life, Su Wan was the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister, with outstanding talents and appearance, but she was tortured in the palace. She was framed by Queen Meng, concubine Li, and concubine Chen, and lost her unborn child. She was also slandered for having an affair with a guard, and was thrown into the cold palace. In the end, she drank poison and died, leaving only endless regret and unwillingness.
Once reborn, Su Wan returned to the age of sixteen years old when she was about to get married, and all tragedies had not yet happened. She is determined to change her destiny and take revenge on those who have hurt her. The reborn Su Wan relied on her past life memories to skillfully deal with the plot of her concubine Su Yao and Aunt Liu. Su Yao's scandalous behavior of stealing poems was exposed at the Hundred Flowers Poetry Festival, and they received the punishment they deserved.
After that, Su Wan turned her attention to the unpopular third prince Zhao Chenyuan. She knew very well that Zhao Chenyuan was an upright, kind, intelligent, and talented person in governing the country. Su Wan deliberately "encountered" Zhao Chenyuan at Ciyun Temple, and successfully attracted Zhao Chenyuan's attention with her unique insights into the military situation in the northwest and the court situation. After that, she gave Zhao Chenyuan many advices and helped him solve problems such as floods in the south of the Yangtze River and salt tax deficit. The two gradually became more and more affectionate as they got along.
However, their feelings and plans were feared and obstructed by Queen Meng and Prince Zhao Hong. Meng and Zhao Hong set up a vicious plan to make Zhao Chenyuan lose his composure in the court and lose his sacred heart. At the critical moment, Su Wan noticed in advance and notified Zhao Chenyuan in time to resolve the crisis.
In this palace full of power struggles, Su Wan and Zhao Chenyuan supported each other and moved forward hand in hand. Can they overthrow the queen and prince and reach the pinnacle of power? Can Su Wan gain love in this life?
