After an argument with her boyfriend, 25-year-old Zhang Xiao rushes out into the street, and gets electrocuted in an accident. When she regains consciousness, she finds herself in the Qing Dynasty (1644–1912). She is now teenaged Ruo Xi, the willful younger sister of the 8th Prince’s consort Ruo Xi enters the Forbidden City, and becomes a trusted servant of the Emperor as the years pass by. Knowing what happens to everyone historically, Ruo Xi hopes to stay detached from palace politics, but she gets romantically entangled with both the 8th Prince and the 4th Prince, whose competition for the throne leads inevitably to danger and tragedy. Staying true to her love and friendship with each prince, Ruo Xi struggles to take control of her own heart and destiny in the Forbidden City, where every step could be a matter of life and death.
