Zhao Mingyue, the eldest princess of the Dajing Dynasty, was loved by thousands of people, but she mistakenly believed in her husband, and was framed by the consort Gu Yanchen, the new emperor, and Liu Ruyan, his cousin in the imperial court. She was deprived of her title and demoted to a commoner. She was humiliated in exile and died of hatred.
Once reborn, Mingyue returned to the eve of the death of the late emperor. With the overwhelming hatred and blood-tear memories of her past life, she clutched the Dragon Tiger Camp soldier talisman and secret guard given to her by her father before his death, and vowed to make all enemies pay with their blood. She secretly recuperated her body, but instead fed Gu Yanchen the poison that would destroy his heir, and even shocked the world by proposing to "nafu" her, which made her consort lose face.
On the road to revenge, she was surprised to find that Xiao Jue, the second son of the prime minister who died for her in his previous life, had also returned with memories. The two Avengers, who share a secret, quickly form an unbreakable alliance. He turned into a counselor, making suggestions and strategizing for her; relying on her identity and memory, she managed every step of the way in the court and house fights.
The power schemes in the court are treacherous, and the intrigues in the house are hard to guard against. Mingyue and Xiao Jue work together to reveal the truth about the new emperor's murder of his father and usurpation of the throne, overthrow Gu Yanchen's power, and tear apart Liu Ruyan's mask of hypocrisy. In the end, she assisted the new king, stabilized the imperial court, finally put aside her hatred, and joined hands with Xiao Jue, her only love in the past and present life, to usher in a bright new life of her own. This is a story about revenge, growth and redemption. It is also a story about two reborn people who warm each other and fight side by side. See how the golden branches and jade leaves are reborn from nirvana, and the phoenix roars into the sky.
