Shen Qinglan, an ancient legitimate daughter who had spent her life enduring mistreatment, was framed by her stepmother and forced to kneel in the ancestral hall until she died.
A broken jade pendant made their souls switch every seven days.
At first they despised each other, but a mysterious rule bound them together: with every switch, they had to complete a task in the other's world, or their souls would be torn apart forever.
