Su Wantang, daughter of a convicted official, is sent to the palace as a maid. After accidentally saving Emperor Xiao Yan (in disguise), she’s forced by the Empress Dowager into the empress’s position fight—all because she resembles the late empress. While fending off concubines’ schemes and the Empress Dowager’s control, she and Xiao Yan (who uses her to investigate the late empress’s murder) start a game of “mutual exploitation” that slowly blooms into hidden affection. Su wants to prove she’s not a substitute; Xiao hides his fear of losing another loved one behind his coldness. From a lowly maid to the future empress, what she’s truly scheming for isn’t the phoenix crown—it’s Xiao Yan’s heart.
