Chang An Nuo

The granddaughter of Lord Yong Lin, Helan Mingyu, was smart since she was a child. Unexpectedly, she met the ninth princes of Zhou and Xiao Chengxu with the same temperament and their love was growing. The news that Xiao Chengxu "died" in battle was misinformed. In order to save Chengxu's younger brother Xiao Chengxuan, Mingyu was forced to marry Chengxu's third brother, Shengzhou King Xiao Chengrui, and was trapped in the harem. Xiao Chengxu has helped Xiao Chengrui proclaim himself emperor and establish the Dasheng Empire through military exploits many times, but he is jealous of his superior demeanor. Knowing the truth about his father’s succession and the death of his mother-in-law, Xiao Chengxu is determined to usurp power and take revenge. Before he succeeded, Xiao Chengrui's old illness relapsed and he passed away suddenly. He ordered Mangyu's son Xiao Qiyuan to succeed Xiao Chengxu in order to stabilize Xiao Chengxu and stabilize the court. Xiao Chengxu was forced to support Xiao Qiyuan, but he still wanted to marry Helan Mingyu. At the same time, Qi Yuan grew up and was dissatisfied with the control of Xiao Chengxu. He was provoked by others and learned of his mother's affair with Xiao Chengxu, and became dissatisfied. Helan Mingyu focused on the stability of Dasheng and tried to find a balance between Qi Yuan and Xiao Chengxu. Unexpectedly, Chengxu eventually died in the battle, and Qiyuan also had a lifelong love affair, and died of illness along with his beloved concubine Dong Ruoxuan. For the sake of Dasheng's future, Mingyu once again firmly accompanied the little emperor who ascended the throne.
