Lin Xiaoman, orphaned, lives in a run-down hut on the outskirts of the capital, selling her homemade osmanthus-scented胭脂 (rouge) to make ends meet. But her exceptional skill angers the capital’s top rouge shop, which smashes her stall and cuts off her business. Desperate, she mistakes Third Prince Shen Mo—who’s incognito investigating corruption—for a “down-and-out nobleman.” To use his “elegance” to break into the upper-class market, Xiaoman forces herself to act gentle, serving tea and “seducing” him to get close. What she doesn’t know is that Shen Mo already recognized her: she’s the little girl who gave him osmanthus cakes when he fainted in a mountain temple three years ago, and her osmanthus rouge is the clue he’s been using to find her. When Xiaoman’s “seduction plan” escalates to giving him a betrothal jade pendant, Shen Mo finally blocks her at the hut’s door, smiling: “Ms. Lin, you seduced a prince—now you want to run?” Meanwhile, the rouge shop has bribed thugs to burn her workshop. Will Xiaoman’s dream of “rising from the hut to riches” and the prince’s true love be destroyed by the fire?
