Synopsis

After a terrible car accident, 25 year old Zhang Xiao travels from modernday China back to the 18th century. She is incarnated as one of her previous lives, that of 16 year old Maertai Rouxi, the daughter of a Manchu general, during the Qing Dynasty. When attempts to return to her life in the future fail, Rouxi tries to adjust to her new life in the court of Emperor Kangxi but soon becomes entangled in the princes’ struggle to succeed the throne. With her modernday knowledge, Rouxi toys with history in her romances with the Eighth Prince, Yinsi, and Fourth Prince, Yinzhen, while sharing the confidences of the 13th prince, Yinxiang.
