As a body double at the Drunk Red Pavilion, Su Fufu bears endless hardships for the top courtesan Shen Mei. An imperial prince offers a fortune in love to Shen Mei, who proudly rejects it, and Su Fufu, in a desperate plight, picks up this opportunity that others throw away. Enduring humiliation, she sees through the game of human hearts, steps from the muddy mire of the mortal dust into the prince's manor, and then fights her way step by step through the treacherous and unpredictable inner palace. Battling treacherous concubines, breaking poisonous schemes, and giving birth to the eldest imperial son, she is finally conferred Imperial Noble Consort and holds supreme power over the six palaces. She rescues distressed women at the bottom with a compassionate yet clear and cold heart, relying not on imperial love, but purely on her own calculated steps toward the position of empress dowager, grasping towering power that belongs to her.
