When her beloved son was born, the queen sent someone to kidnap her. She threatened the lives of the entire Zhou family and sealed her background secretly. The baby was then raised as the legitimate son of the palace.
A Tao concealed her identity and entered the palace as a maid, lurking beside the queen.
However, the emperor fell in love with her and accepted her as his wife. The queen mother and the royal concubine continued to instigate her, causing the queen to become increasingly suspicious and alienated.

In a desperate situation, A Tao decided not to remain contented and strive for power step by step, using his own power to regain the stability of his mother and son.
