Mi Yue is the favorite princess of the king of Chu, but as the king of Chu goes out into battle and suffers a misfortune, the mother of Mi Yue gets banished from the palace. Mi Yue and the Chu prince, Huang Xie, are childhood friends. The two are very in love with each other and in order to elope, Mi Yue agrees to accompany her sister, Mi Shu as she travels to Qin to be wed to the King.

Along the way, their carriage gets attacked by Di Li’s troops. To save Mi Yue, Huang Xie falls into the valley and his whereabouts become unknown. The disheartened Mi Yue decides to investigate who ordered the attack so she accompanies Mi Shu into the palace.
