Jiang Yingci, the female Divine Emperor who protects the Great Xia Empire, has spent twenty years fighting on the borders, slaughtering the Divine Emperors of ten foreign nations. Yet she has never been able to let go of the daughter she lost in a devastating fire all those years ago. When she learns that her daughter is still alive and living in Linjiang City, she lays down her armor and rushes to reunite with her, carrying a heart full of guilt. But she has no idea that her real daughter, Su Wan, is right before her eyes, while another woman has stolen her identity. The impostor, Shen Wan, conspires with her daughter's husband's family to claim the relationship, swindle Jiang Yingci out of billions in assets, and disguise Lu Yancheng, an abusive husband, as a perfect son-in-law. Meanwhile, the real Su Wan is being trampled underfoot by her husband, mother-in-law, and his mistress. The truth is gradually revealed through a jade pendant, DNA evidence, an elderly woman's dying words, and more.
