The love between an icy prince and a sorceress sparks political intrigue and soon propels them into an alternate reality.

Qing Chen (Liu Shi Shi) is a powerful enchantress with remarkable healing abilities. She is a member of an elite group of magicians whose chief role is watching over the imperial family that rules the land. However, a quirk of destiny means that she is destined to fall in love with one of the imperial princes, Yuan Ling (William Chan). The magicians' code strictly forbids them from marrying or having intimate relationships with the imperial family - particularly the Emperor - as they believe that breaking this code will have a disastrous effect on the realm. But the love bond between the pair is too strong to be denied. And when Yuan Ling ascends to the throne, he resolves to take Qing Chen as his wife. But on the day of the ceremony, the new Emperor's brother unleashes a violent bid to seize power. Qing Chen uses a magic stone to travel back in time to a parallel universe, intent on thwarting her own love plans with Yuan Ling and avoid future catastrophe. Can she succeed in pushing him away the second time around? Or will love prove too strong for even this powerful sorceress to hold back?—Rakuten Viki

This time travel drama follows a fantasy premise about a forbidden love between a sorceress and a prince, which makes it a deja vu of sorts for fans waiting to see Liu Shi Shi in a semblance of her role in Scarlet Heart. Due to censorship, the story will be tweaked to drop the time-travel. During the Western Wei, corruption is rampant and the royal family is in a weakened state, leading to great suffering amongst the people. A secret organization responsible for protecting the kingdom was slapped with charges of rebellion and destroyed, leaving only its successor Feng Qing Chen as the sole survivor. Determined to get to the bottom of things, she becomes an integral presence within the palace and a person of importance to both the 4th Prince Yuan Ling and the 7th Prince.—DramaPanda
