The modern soul accidentally traveled through time. When she was on the verge of death in the most filthy corner of the capital, she was saved by a moon-white figure. It was Yun Shu, the powerful national master. His face was as cold as jade, but he extended a warm hand to her. He brought her back to the elegant Yunqi Garden, named her "Xin Xin", taught her how to read and play the piano, and gradually developed tender feelings in the cold years.
However, an imperial edict from Emperor Xiao Heng dragged her into the whirlpool of the palace. She became the "auspiciousness" of the harem, and even became a chess piece to contain Yun Shu. When she saw Yun Shu kneeling to protect her, his finger bones were broken and the gold bricks were stained with blood, she was shocked to realize that the cold Imperial Master had already been in love. And the legendary secret of the youthful beast's passion and fall, is quietly coming true for him - she is actually his destined fate.
A sudden change occurred in the palace during the heaven-sacrifice ceremony. Amidst the flash of swords and shadows, he died in a bloody battle to protect her, and finally turned into a withered flower tree on the snow-buried cliff in the northern extremity. Carrying his remaining petals, she found a glimmer of hope in a desperate situation, nourished him day and night with her heart essence and blood, and endured the pain of having her heart cut out, just for the slim hope of nirvana.
As time goes by, frost dyes her hair, and she guards the plum tree in Yunqi Garden. After endless waiting and suffering, she finally welcomes the ice crystal love flower quietly blooming in the wind and snow, witnessing the gentle miracle of the remaining life.
Intention: Burning one's body in the calamity of love is not the end, only by extending one's life can one prove eternity. Destruction and rebirth reach a sacred contract in the heart and blood of the true love. The ice crystal flower blooming from the ashes is the most tragic and magnificent rebellion against fate.
