In the turbulent court of the Shixi Dynasty, Shen Guihe, who was born in a poor family, originally wanted to be a low-key official, but due to his frequent ingenuity and sharp tongue, he was pushed to the center of power step by step. Su Caiwei, the daughter of the Imperial Tutor, looks elegant but is actually very sharp-tongued. She and Shen Guihe fall in love with each other in a battle of wits. Zhao Yanqing, the son of the left prime minister, becomes his biggest rival, but they accidentally join forces because of their shared ideals. There are also the stranger Liu Zhuge and the female official Song Yanxia, stirring up the situation with their own unique styles. Several people fought openly and secretly in the cunning officialdom, disrupted and cooperated, laughed about worldly affairs, and broke the rules. The cute and intelligent emperor Han Buyu quietly operates with a "waste" attitude, and finally turns his ideal into reality. Machiavellian strategy, love, friendship and growth are intertwined, and the light-hearted humor implies the persistence of ideals and the impermanence of fate. In the end, a major political reform storm allowed everyone to gain growth and true love in the struggle between fate and self, and they also witnessed the new chapter of the dynasty together.
