Hoping for a peaceful life, she instead gets swept up in palace intrigue.

From their first meeting at a palace banquet to their joint defeat of a conspiracy, this transmigration that began by chance becomes the turning point that lets them overcome adversity together and pledge themselves to one another for life. In the whirlpool of political intrigue, their love blooms into the warmest of flowers.
