Law student Su Nian, due to an accident, his soul traveled to an ancient world where everyone could practice cultivation but the history was as strange as parallel time and space - the Dayu Dynasty.
What greeted her was not the golden princess' destiny, but a humble maid who was abandoned by her parents and bought by Xiao Yan, the powerful king of Zhennan.
He used her coldly, and she regarded him as a "dictator" who needed to be judged by the law. In that era of cannibalism, she tried to use modern knowledge to ignite the glimmer of light, but she was always ruthlessly crushed by his iron fist.
When he was gradually burned by her belief in "everyone is equal" in the whirlpool of intrigues, and when she discovered the scars all over his body under his cold appearance on the road to revenge, the two began an unparalleled love about power, hatred and redemption in the torrent of history.
Until one day, he found a booklet she left behind, which clearly said:
"Xiao Yan is guilty of intentional homicide and treason. He is punished for several crimes. He is sentenced to death and deprived of political rights for life."
