Awu, a Gu witch from the Southern Border, infiltrates the palace to avenge her clan, only to accidentally bind herself to the cold-hearted Emperor Xiao Jingyan with a "Heart-Connecting Gu"—if one is hurt, the other suffers double the pain. She originally planned to use Gu magic to overthrow the dynasty, but gradually falls for Xiao's hidden tenderness beneath his indifference as she repeatedly takes knives for him and helps him handle palace coups. Little does she know, Xiao has long known her identity but pretended to be unaware, just to keep this "spiky little Gu master" by his side. When Awu's clan wages war against the royal family, she stands on the city wall with a knife pointed at Xiao, only to find she can't strike—turns out the "Heart-Connecting Gu" was never a spell, but two hearts that had already intertwined.
