Pei Zhaoye, heir to the Prince of Jing'an, cages transmigrated physician Jiang Jian Yue in a gilded prison, making love her confinement. She fakes her death and escapes, is reborn in Jiangnan, raises a child, and makes a name for herself. Five years later, he returns, consumed by madness and obsession, threatening her with their child to force her back into the cage. She uses herself as bait and lays a death trap, burying him alongside her enemy in the imperial mausoleum. As the dragon-sealing stone falls, the life-sharing curse strikes back. She offers up her life to break her chains and win her son a free sky. This is a legendary tale of a love that ends in ashes.
