Su Tang was a modern office worker. She was hit by a car and drowned in a river. When she opened her eyes, she had become Princess Su Tang—the most hated adopted daughter of the Great Xuan Dynasty. Worse still, today was the day Xiao Lin, the abandoned prince she used to bully, ascended the throne. She had to survive. She decided to change her ways and win over the new tyrant—at all costs. Using the Empress Dowager’s favor, she tried clumsy gestures to please him: she fell into his bath, nearly poisoned his eunuch with pastries, and repaired a childhood doll that held their shared memories. Her transformation confused Xiao Lin. But after testing her, he realized she was the same girl he had carried in his heart for years. Su Tang only cared about staying alive. She remembered the novel’s plot: the rightful heroine, Lin Wan, would appear, Xiao Lin would fall for her, Lin Wan would betray him, and he would kill Su Tang in his rage. To avoid this, Su Tang played matchmaker—saving Lin Wan, praising her to Xiao Lin, and pushing for the concubine selection. Her matchmaking drove Xiao Lin mad with jealousy.

Su Tang blamed Lin Wan for Xiao Lin’s collapse and risked her life to save him. At the last moment, Lin Wan discovered the truth: Su Tang was her long-lost twin sister. They joined forces. General Zhao led his army to rescue the throne. Together with Xiao Lin, they crushed the rebellion. All secrets came to light. The sisters reunited. The misunderstandings cleared.
