Prime Minister Shen Wan and the young general Pei Jingheng are in love with each other. However, the old Pei family was framed and wronged by Shen Wan's father, Shen Zhuo. Pei Jingheng approached her just to seek justice. Seeing clearly that her past feelings were all deliberate planning, Shen Wan lost all hope. She took advantage of the incident at the banquet to reveal the truth in public and then threw herself into the river to escape. She was rescued by her confidant Mu Huai and hid in the palace. Pei Jingheng calmed down the chaos in the court and wanted to make up for his mistakes. When the palace changed, the two used the fire to create the illusion of death and rushed to Jiangnan to start a new life. Pei Jingheng held great power, but never got what he wanted. His harem remained empty throughout his life, leaving only endless regrets.
