The imperial prince Xia Jingcheng was ambushed, then rescued by Nan Banyue, a country girl from the mountains, with a bamboo flute and a yellow ox.
The purity in her eyes was like a ray of light, piercing the darkness of political intrigue in which he had spent half his life. So what if they came from completely different worlds? He secretly vowed to make her his consort.

From then on, the atmosphere at the Prince of Xia's residence changed completely: the whole household joined forces to help their prince bring the pretty little mountain girl home as his bride!
