In a world where women are respected and lifespan is long, the empress Qin Zhao picked up a baby girl from a mass grave and named her Shen Yu. She raised her with her own hands, taught her to read, ride and shoot, and gave her countless favors. However, she always regarded herself as the "sister" and built a high wall called ethics between the two.
Seventeen years later, the dying baby girl has grown into a girl with cold appearance and sinister temper. Shen Yu's feelings for Qin Zhao have already crossed the limit, and her paranoid possessiveness has grown wildly in her flesh and blood, and she will not allow anyone to get close to her sister. She calls Qin Zhao "sister", but hides her shady infatuation in pieces of stolen old clothes, guarding her god like a devout and crazy believer.
Qin Zhao abides by the rules and regards this feeling as an insurmountable taboo. She had been engaged to her childhood sweetheart Chen Ningzhao for a long time, thinking that it would be like spending a lifetime together - until Chen Ningzhao met another person and decided to break off the engagement and run away, Qin Zhao suddenly realized that he had never really understood what heartbeat was.
On the other side, Huo Xingyun, the concubine of the Cavalry General's Mansion, and Wen Yining, the legitimate daughter of a famous family, are in love with each other, but their family background stands between them. They are so far apart that they cannot love each other.
When he was frustrated, a new figure appeared next to Qin Zhao. But Shen Yu always stayed where she was, waiting for the person who would never look back at her. When one day she fell, she could catch him steadily.
She said: "Sister, I'm right here, I'm not going anywhere."
Several entangled emotions, several hearts struggling in the cracks of secular ethics - and all the stories have just begun.
