Su Qingyue, the eldest legitimate daughter of the Minister of Revenue's household, was born the brightest pearl among countless families, thanks to her mother's peerless beauty, renowned throughout the capital.
From a young age, she studied her family's inherited medical arts under her mother. With exceptional talent and a diligent, serious nature, everyone believed she was destined for great achievements.
Then the female lead's mother suddenly died. Su Qingyue noticed something strange about the residue left by the medicine and decided to uncover the truth and avenge her mother. But the people in the Minister's household revealed their wicked natures, and a vast conspiracy began to emerge from beneath the surface.
On a pitch-black, rainy night, she sought out the powerful man who held sway over the court. As she sought his protection through a twist of fate, she also caught his attention.
To avenge her mother, she entered the game alone, wiping away the filth amid bloodshed and pledging herself to him. Amid political maneuvering, he devoted himself to protecting her and clearing her path...
She was the sugar he kept hidden in his heart; he was the light in her eternal darkness.
From desperate straits to the pinnacle of power...
They understood each other without a word: they would face this road ahead together!
When all had settled, jeweled ornaments gleamed, candlelight shimmered, and a golden future awaited. Hand in hand, they would spend the rest of their lives together.
