A Qiang (a mute girl, actually the reincarnation of the pages of the Book of Word Spirits) can hear the "voice of memory" of the remaining souls of flowers, trees, and utensils, but cannot speak. In order to find her sister who was separated in the flood ten years ago, she disguised herself as a foolish orphan and was adopted by the prince. She discovered that there was a "Silent Array" hidden deep in the palace that caused drought, and the key to cracking it actually resonated with the pages in her body. Prince Chu Heng appears to be an idle clan member who controls the puppet show, but is actually a "descendant of the gatekeepers" who protects the formation. He noticed something strange about Ah Qiang. The two went from testing, gambling to joining hands. In solving the maze, Ah Qiang gradually found the truth about his voice and life experience. Under Chu Heng's "thousand-faced" mask, there was hidden the tragic wish to nourish the formation with his own lifespan. In the end, Ah Qiang used her true power of speech spirit to save Chu Heng's life, and discovered that her sister was actually the core of the curse - she had to make a painful choice between "telling the truth to save the common people" and "protecting her sister."
