Su Qingqing is the daughter of the steward of the Wei Duke's estate. Spoiled by her parents from childhood, she has grown up willful and unruly.
After years of illness, she became her own doctor, learning medicine from the physician at the estate as a child.
By a twist of fate, Lin Wan, the legitimate daughter of the Wei Duke's household, saves Third Prince Xiao Yan when he returns from the border and brings him to the estate to recover.
Seeing Xiao Yan's handsome face, broad shoulders, trim waist, and elegant bearing, Su Qingqing pretends to be his savior, uses the debt of gratitude to her advantage, and monopolizes his affection.
When the heroine Lin Wan returns, Su Qingqing is kicked aside and becomes a laughingstock, mocked by everyone.
Unwilling to give up, she keeps stirring up trouble, trying to ruin the beautiful love between Xiao Yan and Lin Wan, who are meant to be together for life...
She repeatedly provokes the heroine, Lin Wan.
In the end, Xiao Yan ascends the throne and utterly despises Su Qingqing, rewarding her with "Drunken Bones"...
When she opens her eyes, she is back in the year before any of her lies have been exposed.
The memory of the agony caused by "Drunken Bones," when she was unable to live or die, pierces her to the bone and makes her shudder.
Her past life has given her a clear-eyed understanding of herself: she is timid, greedy, vain, and not very clever.
Being reborn doesn't mean getting a new brain. All she can do is keep deceiving Xiao Yan.
But this time, she only wants to con him out of enough money to save her own skin, stay away from Xiao Yan and Lin Wan, and never come between them.
She gradually distances herself from Xiao Yan, carefully curries his favor, and gets ready to run at a moment's notice...
One day, Xiao Yan blocks the doorway as she clutches her gold, silver, and other valuables. An emotion she can't understand flickers in his eyes. "After telling so many lies, why did you stop?"
