Feng Zhiwei, the daughter of the Phoenix Marshal, was ostracized in the Qiu family because she was an illegitimate daughter, and was later framed and expelled from her family.

In order to survive, Feng Zhiwei disguised herself as a man and entered the Qingming Academy, where she became a whiz with her amazing talent.

With a heart to serve the country, she supported the ruler, and clarified justice, and achieved a great career. Meanwhile, she discovered the secret that she was the orphan of the previous dynasty.

With the pressure of national enmity and family hatred, Feng Zhiwei once turned against his beloved Sixth Prince Ning Yi, and his friends and relatives were also in danger.

For the sake of her family, her relatives, and her lover, Feng Zhiwei sacrificed herself and lived in seclusion.

But with the help of her best friend, she also eventually harvested her own happiness and lived an ordinary and peaceful life with her lover from then on!
