Bu Youran, a novelist, finds herself drawn to the story of Dongge who is known as the most beautiful woman among the Jurchen people. Dongge has been hailed as someone who can make or break a nation and becomes the centre of power struggles of many men. For political reasons, her brother presents her to Nurhaci as a gift. She also has to face Cuyen's advances, Daišan's gentler tendencies, Dorgon's unruliness and Hong Taiji's incomparable love. Dongge eventually develops a relationship with Hong Taiji, despite being ten years older than him.[2]
Though the original novel contains elements of time slip,[3] but due to regulations by SAFRT, it was removed and changes were made to the script.
