In a car accident, modern female entrepreneur Lin Ruoxue's soul traveled to the fictional ancient dynasty - the Dayan Dynasty, and became the concubine of the prime minister's palace with the same name. The original owner's biological mother died young and was bullied in the palace. She was treated as a chess piece and sent to Prince Duan's palace as a concubine. The original owner was cowardly and died in depression, but Lin Ruoxue, who came from modern times, took over this body and this mess.
Faced with the dilemma, Lin Ruoxue relied on modern wisdom and business acumen to gain a foothold in the prime minister's office, carve out a world in the capital's business world, and survive step by step in the turbulent court struggle. She is not attached to any man, but has won the respect of everyone including the cold-faced Duan Wang Xiao Yuhan with her talents and abilities.
Xiao Yuhan, King Duan of the Yan Dynasty, who had great military exploits, held a heavy army, but because of his great achievements, he was jealous of the emperor and was forced to marry the concubine of the prime minister's house as his concubine. He thought this was another political marriage, but he never thought that this "concubine of the prime minister's house" was so different. She was brave, resourceful, calm and rational. In an era when women were regarded as pawns, she lived a life that made men look up to her.
From misunderstandings and conflicts, to mutual understanding and appreciation, to falling in love, a well-matched love story unfolds between the two. In the end, Lin Ruoxue helped Xiao Yuhan solve the conspiracy between the queen and the prince, and she also realized the value of her life - not only gained unforgettable love, but also lived out her true self.
