Su Wanqing, a modern elite lawyer and emergency doctor, returned to ancient times after singing "Guangling San" and became Mu Wantang, a short-lived concubine who was forced to marry into the Hou family and committed suicide by cutting her wrists.
When she opened her eyes, she saw a vicious stepmother, a mean sister-in-law, and a "crippled" husband that everyone avoided. However, she used modern wisdom to tear apart her enemies, take back her mother's property, and fight her way out of the deep mansion.
Involved in strange dreams and entangled in time and space, she was shocked to realize that she, her mother, the mysterious prince, and the imperial eunuch were all trapped in the same inter-life fate.
She reorganized her shop, played with marketing, stirred up public opinion, relied on her medical skills to save people, relied on the law to establish herself, and along the way she built a career all over the capital. Jiang Heng pretended to be disabled and lurked, and he and she turned from allies into confidants, guarding her in secret every step of the way.
When the truth about the dreamer is revealed and her fate hangs in the balance, she holds the memories of two lives in her hand and vows to find out the cause of her mother's death and break the situation to defy fate. In this life, she will not be a dodder flower, only a chess player who controls her own destiny.
