She is the seventh concubine of the Ye family, a member of the Ministry of Industry's field division, and her biological mother Wu Yun is just a concubine who is not taken seriously. The mother and son live in a remote Ouhua Pavilion. The Ye family is so large and hierarchical, and the aunt Zhao Qingzhu is in charge of the middle court. However, there are constant turmoil in Qilu Pavilion. Qin Xiaoniang has won the heart of the master and does not take the mistress in his eyes. The grandmother who calls the shots in the family, Mrs. Ye, was born in the loyal general's palace and lives alone in Wutong Courtyard. She is one of the few people who can check and balance Qin Xiaoniang. However, there are undercurrents deep in the house, and you will fall into a trap if you are not careful.
An invisible rule of survival is placed in front of Ye Wantang: restrain your sharpness, act in a low-key manner, protect your young brother, and avoid the difficult schemes between Qin Xiaoniang and her brothers and sisters. If you make one wrong move, you will be bullied and you will no longer have a safe place to live.
She relied on words and deeds to resolve disputes in the backyard again and again, but she gradually discovered that the disputes in the Ye family were closely intertwined with the competition for power in the officialdom. By chance, she met Chu Yanning, the ostracized eldest son of the Anyuan Hou Mansion. Chu Yanning's biological mother, Mrs. Li, had a docile temperament, while her overbearing aunt, Mrs. Wang, devoted herself to supporting her biological sons, Chu Yanan and Chu Yanping, and suppressed Chu Yanning at every turn. Even though he had outstanding abilities, he was treated harshly and struggled to compete for the hereditary title.
The two get to know each other through human relationships, but there are many obstacles ahead: Zhao Xiaogong, Zhao Wuyi, who is in love with Wantang; Chen Chengyi, a son of a military general; Shen Zhimo and Shen Zhihua of the Yangzhou Tongpan family; Yang Jingming and Yang Leyan of the Cambodian official Yang family; all the children of aristocratic families are in constant turmoil. Ye Wantang not only has to win the Ye family's house fight, but also accompanies Chu Yanning to fight against the strife in the house and the disputes in the court.
