Xiao Che, the new emperor of Dajing, ascended the throne. The court was controlled by Taishi Lin Ruofu, and his relatives were in chaos. Xiao Che loved Gu Yanci deeply, but because the Gu family was falsely accused of treason, the whole family was executed. He could only pretend to imprison Gu in the palace to save his life, and secretly planned to overturn the case.
A Jin palace lantern is a key token. It is a relic of Gu's father. It hides the secret evidence of innocence in the rebellion case and also reveals the truth about the sudden death of the late emperor. Xiao Che's confidant Xie Lin protected him throughout the process. The two borrowed a lamp to investigate the case, and joined forces with Shen Xiuyuan, the Qingliu censor, and Zhao Heng, the awakened northern vassal king, to fight against the grand master and his relative Wang.
During the process, Gu Yanci learned the truth about Xiao Che's forbearance, put aside the estrangement, and joined forces to uncover Lin Ruofu, the culprit in the Gu family case, and put an end to the palace rebellion in which the grand master supported the deposed prince, and the Gu family's injustice was cleared up. In the end, the two cleared the court and ruled the world together. They chose Xiao Yun, the nephew of the clan, as their heir apparent and stayed together for the rest of their lives.
