As the seventh prince born of a palace maid, Jamel Xiao has been scorned and bullied in the palace since he was a child. Only Shen Qingru, the daughter of the general, gives him warmth and becomes the white moonlight in his heart. Jamel Xiao appears to be cowardly and incompetent, but in fact he secretly cultivates power. With his extraordinary talent and forbearance, he benefits from the battle among the princes to seize the throne, and finally ascends to the throne. After taking the throne, Jamel Xiao gradually revealed his true colors and began to liquidate those who had despised him, including Shen Qingru's father, General Shen, showing a completely different ruthlessness from before. Shen Qingru ventured into the palace to plead for his father, only to find that the gentle and jade-like seventh prince in his memory had turned into a ruthless emperor. A confrontation about power and original intention began between the two. Jamel Xiao gave Shen Qingru two choices - become his queen and share power, or be destroyed with the family, pushing the story to the climax.
