Plot

In the heart of Ming Dynasty China, two sibling duos are bound by the threads of destiny, their paths interwoven, yet littered with obstacles that challenge their pursuit of love. Born into royalty, the youthful Emperor and his sister Wushuang, are trapped within the gilded cage of the Imperial Palace, under the stern watch of their mother, the Empress Dowager. In stark contrast, their counterparts, Li Yilong - the infamous 'King Bully' of Meilong, and his restaurant-owning sister Phoenix, embody the unpretentious charm of the common folk. Fate takes an unexpected turn when the royal siblings, yearning for freedom, escape the palace in disguise, their journey leading them to Meilong. Here, they encounter their destined loves, yet the path to true love is far from simple. With Wushuang masquerading as a man and the Emperor in incognito, a whirlwind of confusion, complications, and misinterpretations ensue. Gender identities are blurred, class disparities create chasms, and the shadows of their own identities and egos hinder their hearts' desires. In this complex dance of love and destiny, divine intervention steps in to guide them towards their true paths. Yet, as the scars of separation and disappointment linger, one can't help but wonder if it's already too late for love to truly triumph. This is a vibrant and captivating tale of love, identity, and destiny, set against the rich tapestry of historic China.
