Born as the daughter of a powerful general, Chu Zhao (Chen Du Ling) has always longed to forge a life for herself instead of existing in her father's shadow. She decides to set out on her own, and falls in love with royal son Xiao Xun (Wang Rui Chang). However, when Xiao Xun launches a ruthless bid for the throne, Chu Zhao belatedly realizes she has been used as a pawn, bringing ruin upon her entire family and sealing her own fate. Given a second chance, she awakens three years in the past and joins forces with Xie Yan Lai (Zhou Yi Ran), the illegitimate son of the Xie family. Recognizing his potential, Chu Zhao becomes a guiding light for him, helping him ascend from a lowly imperial guard to a formidable general, and the two vow to fight against Xiao Xun. Can they defeat Xiao Xun and usher in a new era of peace to the kingdom? This drama is adapted from the web novel "Chu Hou" by Xi Xing.
