Su Xiaoman, an overworked office worker, returns home at midnight after overtime and finds a red sandalwood box left by her mother. To her shock, she releases Lady Ning, a noble consort from the Qianlong era of the Qing Dynasty—this ancestor, who insists, “I was the emperor’s favorite consort,” mistakes the rental apartment for a “cold palace,” forcing Su to kowtow, learn to wear banner dresses, and even dumps her coffee, yelling, “This bitter potion is worse than the imperial doctor’s coptis soup!” But when Su is harassed by a client and her design is rejected, Lady Ning uses ancient embroidery techniques to revamp the project into something stunning, and even wears a banner dress to the client’s office to “act like a consort” and shut down the picky supervisor. Amid the chaos of the ancestor forcing her to “follow rules,” there’s the warmth of the ancestor quietly backing her up. What’s more, the bottom of the box is carved with “Su’s daughter, protect Lady Ning”—turns out, Lady Ning’s existence has long been tied to Su Xiaoman’s fate?
