Xiao Chen is a screenwriter. She is writing up a story with a background revolving 2 states which have been at odds with each other. Huayuan City is a place ruled by women who have a say in everything. The men are relegated to become subordinates. On the other hand, Xuanyu City is the opposite where men rule. When Huayuan defeated Xuanyu in a battle, Young Master Han Shuo has to marry one of the Huayuan’s princesses and live there.

However, Han Shuo has a heart ailment and is predicted to die by the time he is 20 years old. Han Shuo’s plot is to marry the Second Princess Chen Chu Chu to get Huayuan’s treasured Dragon Bone to cure his heart disease. But the Third Princess Chen Qian Qian appears and spoils the plan. Qian Qian is a willful princess who has been spoiled by her mother who rules Huayuan City. She declares Han Shuo to be her husband instead.

The lead actor for Xiao Chen’s script, Han Min Xing, is dissatisfied with her work and they quarrel over it. She rushes to rewrite it to completion while falling sick. When she wakes up, she is trapped in Huayuan City as Qian Qian and Min Xing is now Han Shuo. According to her script, Han Shuo will poison Qian Qian on their wedding night so he can be together with Chu Chu. Xiao Chen thought she could then die and return to the real world. But she just gets drunk instead as Han Shuo fails to poison her.

When Xiao Chen wakes up, it dawns on her that she may have to endure until the end of her script before she could get out of her dream and back to the real world. That means Han Shuo has to help Chu Chu to become the Crown Princess and succeeds her mother. But Han Shuo has been arrested for trying to poison Qian Qian and would be executed. Qian Qian then rushes over to plead with her mother to spare Han Shuo by claiming that she is pregnant. Han Shuo is freed but forced to accept the child as his which is a humiliation to him. He tries to poison Qian Qian again but still fails.

However, Qian Qian’s mother finds out later that she isn’t pregnant as her chastity mark is still intact. This time, Qian Qian claims that she has fallen in love with Han Shuo and that is why she saved him. But to get to the end of the drama, Qian Qian has to push Han Shuo to Chu Chu. Thus, Qian Qian comes up with a plan for Chu Chu to save Han Shuo in a set-up at the Music and Dance Academy. But the plan falls apart when Chu Chu ends up fighting with Han Shuo instead. They are supposed to fall in love at first fight according to Xiao Chen’s script.

Qian Qian goes to see Han Shuo to apologize for humiliating him. He is surprised when she suggests that they compromise as a couple. But Han Shuo has arranged for Qian Qian to be killed by archers when she steps out of his room. He rushes out to quietly block the arrows as his heart has softened with her apology. However, Qian Qian knows that he has tried to kill her.

Qian Qian is afraid that Han Shuo will turn ruthless because this is how it will end up according to the script. He will kill Qian Qian, betray Chu Chu and attack Huayuan City. After discussions with other storytellers, Qian Qian decides to earn Han Shuo’s trust to avoid getting killed by him.

Therefore, Qian Qian comes up with a plan to supposedly save him from being captured by Chu Chu for meeting a spy. But Han Shuo knows the letter to lure him out to meet the spy is a fake. When Qian Qian turns up to “save” Han Shuo, only Chu Chu is there. Chu Chu ends up being reprimanded by her mother for failing to catch the spy. Qian Qian is still able to convince Han Shuo that she did try to save him although he didn’t turn up. Han Shuo now thinks that Qian Qian has feelings for him.
