Ruan Que, a commoner girl, has secretly loved Fu Wu, the son of a powerful minister, ever since he saved her as a child. To be near him, she sells herself as a maid to the Fu Mansion—only to discover Fu Wu is soon to marry Shen Fengyi, the prime minister's daughter, a union everyone hails as "the phoenix resting on the wutong tree" (a match made in heaven). Ruan Que can only guard him silently as a maid, but when Fu Wu is ambushed, she throws herself in front of him to take the blade, baring her heart. Though Fu Wu has long had feelings for her, he is forced to push her away with cold words for the sake of his family's fate: "You're a sparrow under the eave; you shouldn't land on my wutong tree that could collapse at any moment." Shen Fengyi's jealous schemes and the Fu family's crisis of rise and fall make their love walk on thin ice—when the sparrow tries to perch on the wutong, and the phoenix claims the tree to drive the sparrow away, is this misplaced deep love a suicidal obsession, or a turning point for rebirth?
