Tinglan was originally the daughter of a criminal minister of the previous dynasty. Just before her mother passed away, she was told the secret of her life experience and warned her never to set foot in Kyoto.
However, things are unpredictable. As soon as her mother passed away, Tinglan was sold into a brothel by her stepfather. Because of her immortal appearance, she was given as a bribe to Feng Heming, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy who was over sixty years old. She struggled to survive in a high-level courtyard. During this period, she had a relationship with his disciple, General Qi Wenyuan, who had a large number of soldiers and was both civil and military.
After the death of the master, her life was in danger, and she ran away in the severe winter of ice and snow. She almost died due to hypothermia. Her life was hanging by a thread. Qi Wenyuan rescued her and hid her in the study...
At first, Qi Wenyuan only admired her beauty and tried to tease her in every possible way, but was rejected. As they got along day by day, he was impressed by her intelligence and talent, and his whole heart fell in love with her. However, even though he treated her in every possible way, she did not dare to respond.
How could Tinglan not be attracted to Qi Wenyuan, who was talented, beautiful, brave and resourceful? However, she was the daughter of a former criminal official and was his mistress, so she did not dare to love her. She was afraid that she and Qi Wenyuan would fall into the abyss of eternal destruction...
In the end, his bravery and affection melted her...
However, the road to love is full of disasters. Qi Wenyuan's mother died because of Tinglan. Qi Wenyuan could not love her but hated her and refused to let go. After much suffering, the two reconciled.
From then on, in order to atone for her sins, she stayed with the Ancient Buddha of Qingdeng every day, but she suffered from the pain of missing and guilt all the time...
