Su Yan, an overlooked idle prince, is suddenly betrothed to Empress Chu Zhao. Refusing to be a "decorative consort in the harem," he publicly rejects the marriage and even threatens to die. Expecting execution, he's shocked when Chu Zhao abandons her imperial robes—she starts showing up daily at his bamboo hut with osmanthus cakes, helps him feed rabbits, and even delays court three times just to watch stars with him. It's only when Su Yan finds an old handkerchief in her sleeve—the very one he gave to a little beggar he saved ten years ago—that he realizes: this "forced marriage" is a ten-year-long mutual pining from the empress.
