Su Jinyi, the concubine of the Su Mansion, went to the palace to change clothes for the ninth rank on behalf of her sister-in-law. She had no support from her family background and no golden fingers to rely on. Faced with the poisoning of her eldest sister, the conspiracy of the noble concubine, and the suppression of the Queen Mother, she resolved them one by one with her calmness and resourcefulness. She did not compete for favor, but she was favored by the emperor Xiao Yi alone: when she was slandered, he investigated the case overnight to prove her innocence; when she was in danger, he sacrificed his life to protect her; when she missed home, he made an exception and allowed her to return to the province. From changing clothes at the edge of the cold palace to being the empress in charge of the Phoenix Seal, she relies on her resourcefulness to win her future and her sincerity to win her favor. In the turbulent palace, she interprets a golden-fingered but satisfying legend of pure court love.
