Zhu Cixi, the ninth princess of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, committed suicide and died for her country during the Jiashen national disaster. However, her soul accidentally traveled four hundred years and possessed the body of "Qi Guanyi", an orphan girl who had just died in a car accident in modern times. This is a strange new world. There are no kings, ministers, fathers and sons, no three cardinal principles and five permanent principles. Women can show up in public and even wear weird "fancy clothes".
After the initial fear and confusion, Qi Guanyi discovered that she had awakened a special ability - as long as her palms touched the ancient objects, she could absorb the "qi" accumulated in them. This "qi" could not only nourish her weak soul, but also allow her to see fragments of the past experienced by this ancient object.
In order to survive in this strange world, and to make herself stronger and not repeat the mistakes of the country and family, Qi Guanyi relied on her innate golden finger to open an antique shop called "Youfeng Laiyi" in a corner of the city.
She stroked the dusty porcelain and saw the fire and the rise and fall of the official kiln; she picked up the rusty bronze and what appeared before her eyes were the golden swords and iron horses on the battlefield. Every ancient relic is a piece of dusty history and the source of her power. As she sees more antiquities and becomes more capable, she not only emerges in the antique world, but also gradually comes into contact with another secret world of strange people and strangers hidden under the ordinary surface.
A princess from the old era, a superpower belonging to the new era, the legend of Qi Guanyi begins in this small antique shop.
