Su Wan, an unfavored illegitimate daughter of the Prime Minister’s household, is sent to the palace as a maid to take the blame for her legitimate elder sister. She stumbles upon a red skirt belonging to the late Empress, embroidered with half a map of the realm—a key secret from a past palace coup. Determined to hide the skirt to stay alive, she unexpectedly catches the eye of the cold and solemn Emperor Gu Zhao, who suspects her of being an enemy spy and sets out to test her. As Gu Zhao probes deeper, he finds himself drawn to her resilience; Su Wan, in turn, discovers that beneath the Emperor’s icy exterior lies guilt over the late Empress and a hidden worry for the kingdom. When the secret of the red skirt is uncovered and remnants of the former dynasty begin to stir, Su Wan must fight her way up in the palace while choosing between helping Gu Zhao defend his realm and preserving their budding love. Little does she know, Gu Zhao’s “tests” are actually a ten-year wait for her arrival.
