Si Shen Zhao ay nakulong sa pag-ibig at poot ng malalim na palasyo sa loob ng dalawang buhay. Sa kanyang nakaraang buhay bilang reyna, naniwala siya nang lubos sa emperador na si Xiao Yu, pinanood ang tapat na pamilyang Gu na puksain nang may trahedya, nasaksihan ang mapait na kapalaran ng kanyang minamahal na si Gu Yan, at sa huli ay namatay nang miserable sa malamig na palasyo.

Sa gitna ng kawalan ng pag-asa, nagpanggap si Shen Zhao na namatay upang makatakas at tuluyang putulin ang ugnayan. Unti-unting natuklasan ni Gu Yan ang buong sabwatan, napagtantong nagkamali siya sa pananakit sa kanyang minamahal, at puno ng pagsisisi na humayo upang tubusin ang kanyang kasalanan.
