Because of his outstanding achievements, the head of the Su family was framed by Xie Jingyuan and the whole family was executed. Su Wanqing was imprisoned in the Hou Mansion by Xie Jingyuan and became his canary. She is obedient on the surface, but secretly uses the resources of the Hou Mansion to learn tactics and contact her old subordinates. She was caught by Xie Jingyuan after escaping three times, but she became more and more aware: only by being strong can she break the shackles.
She pretended to rely on Xie Jingyuan and secretly assisted the neglected young emperor Xiao Heng. With her extraordinary resourcefulness, she gradually disintegrated Xie Jingyuan's power and exposed his treasonous conspiracy. In the end, she helped Xiao Heng regain the imperial power, clear the grievances of the Su family, and became the first female censor Zhongcheng in the Daqi Dynasty. She took charge of the court's laws as a woman, and achieved a counterattack from a bird in a cage to a powerful person in the court.
