However the Queen forces him to marry Zhang Luyi, the 14-year-old daughter of Prime minister. Knowing Chunying and the guard Li Jiannian is a loving couple, Emperor Hui allows his lover get what she wants. Chunying gives birth to twins named Pingxiang and Yuxiang. On the same day Emperor Hui dies. As there is no successor to the Emperor, the Queen Lu orders Luyi to take a son from Chunying. Presenting wine to her, the Queen Lu sends the General Shen Youqi to kill Chunying. Chunying flees from the palace with her elder son Pingxiang, while Jiannian is murdered unfortunately. After 15 years, Yuxian succeeds the throne and knows about his identity by chance. Queen Lu plans to kill him to avoid any disloyalty. In order to see her son, Chunying enters the palace with Pingxiang by applying to work at the palace, and finally reunites with the trapped Yuxiang. Luyi confesses the truth to Chunying and resolves all the misunderstandings. However, Queen Lu is still a deadly threat to the family. Since Pingxiang has been suffering from injuries for long, he decides to sacrifice himself to drink the poisoned wine so as to ensure his mother fleeing safely with Yuxiang.
