In her previous life, Shen Jingque, the concubine of the prime minister's house, was manipulated by her vicious stepmother and sister because she was weak and timid. She was eventually framed for having an affair and froze to death on a snowy night. Once she was reborn, she returned to the time when she was fifteen years old, before any tragedy happened. In this life, she put away her innocence, used "sickness" as a disguise, and "cowardice" as a sharp edge, and worked every step of the way in the deep house. She deftly defused her eldest sister's plot, alienated her stepmother and father, and brought down those who bullied her in her previous life.
In the process, she unexpectedly formed an alliance with the broken-arm prince Xiao Changyuan, who was also despised by the world. One stirs up troubles in the inner house, while the other accumulates strength in the court. The two went from being allies who used each other to gradually becoming each other's only warmth and salvation. In the end, Shen Jingque not only avenged her biological mother and took complete control of the Prime Minister's Palace, but also assisted Xiao Changyuan in clearing the obstacles and ascending to the throne of God. She wore the phoenix robe and became a virtuous queen, truly achieving power over the world. The highlight is that the heroine has no golden fingers throughout the whole process. She only relies on her past life memories and extraordinary resourcefulness to seek revenge. She and the male protagonist are "beautiful, strong and miserable" and work together in both directions.
