When Ping Gui (Benny Chan) grows up, he meets and falls in love with Wang Bao Chuan (Jessica Hsuan), the third daughter of the prime minister to the emperor. But the prime minister does not approve of the lowly status of Ping Gui, and the couple must face many obstacles placed by family and society during the Tang Dynasty. How much will the two sacrifice for the sake of their love?
