Xiao Chengzhao, puteri sulung sah dari kediaman Putera Yu, kehilangan ibunya sejak kecil dan dilayan dengan kejam oleh ibu tirinya. Dia dipaksa menyamar sebagai lelaki untuk menggantikan pewaris putera, lalu memasuki ibu kota sebagai tebusan dan teman belajar di Istana Timur. Dengan perlindungan Putera Mahkota Xiao Zhi, dia menggunakan kemahiran perubatan serta kebolehannya dalam kewangan dan percukaian untuk membantu Putera Mahkota melemahkan kuasa para putera wilayah. Ketika perburuan musim bunga, dia cedera parah sewaktu melindungi maharaja dan identitinya hampir terbongkar, namun seorang tabib istana membantunya menyembunyikan rahsia itu. Ketika menyiasat kes lama kematian ibunya, dia mendapati Putera Zhao dan bapa saudaranya, Xiao Wu, berpakat untuk memberontak. Walaupun identitinya terbongkar, Putera Mahkota tetap memilih untuk berganding bahu dengannya merancang langkah seterusnya. Dalam jamuan hari lahir Ibu Suri, dia mendedahkan bukti jenayah kumpulan pemberontak. Selepas Xiao Zhi menaiki takhta, dia memulihkan nama baik ibu Xiao Chengzhao dan menghukum para pengkhianat. Setelah dendamnya terbalas, Xiao Chengzhao membuat janji untuk bertemu semula dalam tiga tahun, meninggalkan ibu kota untuk mengembara, dan menantikan pertemuan semula pada zaman yang makmur.
