Tao Xiangli, an inheritor of intangible cultural heritage woodworking, opened her eyes to find herself in ancient times. Her parents were dead, and her greedy relatives were eyeing her like a pack of wolves.

Tao Xiangli found a badly injured man. When he awoke, he seemed to have lost his memory. Tao Xiangli needed a helper, so she decided to do a good deed from start to finish and kept him on to do odd jobs in exchange for room and board.

Prince Xie Yuncheng was a master of both the civil and martial arts and deeply favored by the emperor, but he disappeared after being framed by treacherous enemies.

Darn, they had the wrong man again.
