Lin Wanzhao, daughter of a disgraced grand tutor, opens Wanxiang Candy Shop on Academy Back Street to clear her father’s name. Her sweet osmanthus lotus root makes the shop famous in the capital. One day, Xiao Jingheng, in indigo robes, comes to queue—she mistakes him for a failed scholar, gives him extra sugar, and even teaches him "how to please the Emperor." Little does she know, this man is the Emperor himself. Burnt out from court factional strife, Xiao finds warmth in the shop, returning repeatedly from a "queuing customer" to a "part-time helper." Until imperial guards surround the shop: Lin is shocked to learn the man who boiled sugar with her is the Emperor she was supposed to "please." And Xiao’s goal is more than candy—he wants to boil the kingdom into sweetness, with her.
