Jiang Chaoyun, an office worker, accidentally transmigrated from her rented room into the body of a little girl fleeing famine in a fictional dynasty. Along the way, she also picked up a younger brother and sister.
To survive, she sold herself into servitude. She protected her siblings and stood up to bullies, eventually becoming a senior maid and helping a timid young lady marry into the Duke's household.
The eldest son of the household took a liking to her, but his mother despised her low birth and drove her out.
Chaoyun turned around and found a more powerful patron, freeing herself from servitude and resolving to secure a bright future.
The dynasty's third prince was named Crown Prince at a young age, yet the second prince, born to the Noble Consort, overshadowed him at every turn. Then he met Jiang Chaoyun, and his life took an unexpected turn.
With the eldest son, who had once saved her life, and the Crown Prince, her business partner, which branch should Jiang Chaoyun choose to climb?
She always knew clearly what had brought her this far.
The story of a young woman fleeing famine who fights her way into the ranks of the powerful: inner-court intrigue, revenge, a touch of political maneuvering, and a regret arc.
Theme: Love is precious, but power is worth more. We strong women have never let men dictate our lives.
Who will be the real CP? Let's wait and see together...
