After transmigrating, modern office worker Chu Yi becomes the Sixth Prince Chu Yi in the Great Chu imperial palace.
On his first day there, his mother, a high-ranking consort, is murdered by villains in a bizarre death.
With his mother gone and his father indifferent, the palace is full of people who fawn over the powerful and trample the weak.
Having lost his only support, Chu Yi becomes a pitiful little boy whom anyone in the palace can kick around.
After Chu Yi is bedridden again and again because of the palace servants' "carelessness," the emperor finally notices the son he has long neglected and casually entrusts him to Consort Shu to raise.
A prince dropped from the sky. Consort Shu looks coldly at the young prince and says, "If you bring trouble to my door, don't blame me for being heartless!"
Chu Yi blinks. His instinct for survival kicks in, and he grabs Consort Shu's leg, calling softly, "Mother Consort..."
Consort Shu: ...
One is an unloved young prince, the other a long-disfavored consort. This mother and son, brought together by chance, rely on each other from then on, finding warmth in each other's arms in the cold palace.
Then one day, Consort Shu, who has always been cautious, discovers that the Sixth Prince she raised has gained astonishing power...
