The heroine is the daughter of a guilty minister, who works as a medical officer in the palace incognito, and the hero is the seventh prince who hides his secrets. The two meet because of palace intrigues, and they go from jealousy and temptation to life and death dependence. The second boy is the son of a free and uninhibited general, and the second girl is a sweet and straightforward princess. The two go from "troubling each other" to running in both directions. The subplots are sweet and sad, echoing the main plot line.
