The heroine Aheng was originally an unknown palace maid in the Siyuan Bureau. She was framed for theft and expelled from the palace because she refused to follow the unspoken rules of the eunuch in charge. After living among the people, she relied on her family's plant cultivation skills to open a flower shop in the capital and quickly became famous. Her talent attracted the attention of the young emperor who was also passionate about exotic flowers and plants, but was controlled by powerful ministers. The two became connected because of flowers, and went from being the emperor's "royal gardener" to working together to eradicate the sycophants in the court. Eventually, Ah Heng became the first "female farmer" in the Dasheng Dynasty, creating a new policy of using flowers to drive the agricultural economy.
