Against the background of the increasingly complex power structure of the Nanqi Dynasty, the cold palace prince Wei Mingzhao has been able to grow up steadily without being affected by the palace struggle due to the death of his mother and concubine and the demotion of his family. However, the emperor was seriously ill, and the struggle for the throne between the prince and the princes continued to escalate. Wei Mingzhao was implicated, and his relatives, friends and allies were involved in the vortex of conspiracy. As the legitimate daughter of a noble family, Lu Jinyu was forced into the palace due to family political involvement, and the two formed an alliance. Prince Song Chenlin, clan member Xiao Yunchen and other forces are intertwined, weaving a complex network of palace power with Queen Zhao as the center. The story focuses on Wei Mingzhao's growth and the confrontation between various parties, and also lays out multiple narratives, including palace intelligence, dynastic turmoil, family ups and downs, personal world affairs and the survival struggle of little people. Each volume is an independent story node, gradually intertwining the local victories and defeats of different forces and the turning points of personal destiny. In the end, power changes, characters are either redeemed or fall into silence, and the fate of the Nanqi Dynasty takes a historic turn due to the struggle for power.
