[1] During the reign of the Kangxi Emperor, Yaojia Chenxiang entered the Forbidden Palace as a lowly servant.
Chenxiang learned the ways of surviving in the palace and became close friends with another servant named Liuli and Chunshou, a eunuch.
One night, she enters Liuli's bedchamber only to find out that she carries an affair with Yuntang, another prince.
In a hunt between the Emperor and the Princes, Yinxiang was blinded and lost his visions, and was placed under confinement as he was seen as a threat who may want to battle for the future throne.
However, Yinxiang found that Liuli played a trick on him and refused to tell him, attempting to run away from the palace only to be shot with arrows to death as ordered by the Emperor.
