After transmigrating, Shen Tingzhi and the tyrannical Crown Prince Yuchi Jin were struck by lightning together, forcing her to become his personal palace maid. To save her life and escape the palace, she appeared obedient and weak while wildly flattering him, but inside she was frantically complaining and plotting to save money and run away. Little did she know that Yuchi Jin had unexpectedly acquired mind-reading powers after being struck by lightning! Afflicted by a bizarre poison of Northern Yin that amplified his senses and emotions, as she listened to her duplicitous and shrewd inner voice, he transitioned from initial gnashing of teeth to completely falling for her amidst the undercurrents of court turmoil. While she meticulously planned her escape, he step by step guarded her safety, domineeringly cutting off all her retreats. The sweet and playful daily interactions between the scheming crown prince and the money-loving drama-queen palace maid thus unfold.
