Traveling back in time as a girl waiting for a talent show, Qiu Yingying originally wanted to live a stable life, but she was forced into the palace by Emperor Daoguang because of a modern ballad. In the loneliness of the palace, she seemed to be a spectator of history, watching the decline of this dynasty with cold eyes. But there are always some people and some feelings that make her unable to really turn a cold eye: the moonlight-like eldest son Bing is her initial throbbing, the righteous and evil Xu Yi shows her the freedom outside the palace walls, the guard Zuo Qiu Dao is willing to protect her with his life, the powerful minister Man Dekun meets her opponent in chess, and the Western missionary with the pseudonym "Irgen Chengge" opens the window to the world for her. In the whirlpool of personal emotions and the fate of her family and country, where will her heart turn?
