Synopsis
Lin Xi is the most perfect eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. She has a peerless appearance. She is the best in playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is as gentle as an orchid in an empty valley. Only she knows that this is just a mask carved by fourteen years of harsh "substitute" upbringing - her aunt, the eldest princess of Huaiyang, carved her into a replica of her late mother (a princess from a foreign country and a princess), and she even breathes with performance. She hated the mother who died giving birth to her, and even more hated the shadow-shrouded childhood. Her heart was as cold as stone. After returning home following the imperial edict, the hypocritical warmth of the prime minister's office and the turbulent undercurrents of the palace were just another scene that required careful acting for her. Until the innocent and sincere concubine Lin Yuhuan brought her heart-warming sweet soup, the dandy prince Fu Linyuan penetrated the hole under her perfect mask with frivolous words - "Beauty is beautiful, but the soul is lost." A crack quietly appeared. The bloody last words behind the tender portrait of her mother revealed the cruel truth - her birth was actually a murder committed by her father and the King of Chu to pave the way for his sweetheart! The mask of gentleness is shattered inch by inch, and the suppressed madness turns into a prairie fire. Fu Linyuan's fiery love is her only salvation and hope, and Lin Yuhuan's flawless kindness is the warm sunshine in her cold world. However, the whirlpool of intrigue swallows everything. The blood-stained jade pendant fell into the palm of the hand, and the body of the loved one cooled in the arms. The day when a great revenge is avenged is also the day when the loved one is lost forever. The fierce flames burned away Qiu Yu, leaving only embers and snow. She walked away alone and planted two white plum trees that would never wither under the snow-capped mountains of her mother's homeland to commemorate the light and love she had briefly had but lost forever. Purpose: To generate electricity for love
