In an accident, Lin Qian'er, a student from the Department of Literature and Art, was sucked into the book by a mysterious golden scroll, and became Lin Qian'er, the fourth lady of the Lin Mansion in Nanlu who had just fallen into the water and woke up.
She thought she could save her life by escaping her eldest sister's plot, but she found a hairpin that had been trampled by someone, a dark red thread of unknown origin, and traces of a third person that shouldn't have been there - the original owner fell into the water. It was not a simple back-house fight at all.
In order to find out the truth, Lin Qian's children disguised themselves as men and traveled around Zhaojing. She relied on her modern cultural knowledge to identify antiquities, check dyes, and solve puzzles, but she ran into the cold-faced general Yan Hui who had returned from the north again and again.
One conceals his identity to trace the death of the original owner, and the other is under secret orders to find a mysterious ancient scroll that can shake the world.
They doubted and tested each other, from competing for clues to being forced to work side by side, from each getting what they needed, to relying on each other in life and death.
But when all the mysteries pointed to the "Volume of Everything" that could rewrite history, Lin Qian'er discovered that her time travel was never an accident, and the person Yan Hui was waiting for might have been her all along.
The wind and clouds are turning in a thousand ways, and with a startled look, I am the only one in this life.
