In her previous life, Shen Ruojiao was a noble consort who never fought for favor or power. Yet she was still drawn into a murder plot and poisoned to death by a bowl of glutinous rice balls during the Lantern Festival.
Reborn in a new life, Shen Ruojiao returns to the twelfth lunar month of her first year in the palace.
The once-celebrated legitimate daughter of a chancellor's family, famed throughout the capital, refuses to remain in the shadows. As murder cases break out one after another in the harem and conspiracies emerge, she untangles them all with her intelligence and ingenuity, and accidentally uncovers even more secrets. The mastermind hiding in the fog gradually comes to light.
Danger dogs her every step, but what she never expected was that the young emperor, whom she had seen only twice in three years, would always be the first to step in and shield her!
It turns out his ruthless resolve is reserved for others, while he saves all his tenderness and love for her.
She thought those three years were the loneliest, hardest time of her life, but all along, someone had been thinking of her day and night.
