Amid the widespread famine and starving corpses across the Great Jing Dynasty, bachelor Chen Laogen finds a newborn baby girl shivering outside an abandoned temple. Though he can barely feed himself, he takes her in out of kindness. Scrounging for wild roots and tree bark, he scrapes together every bite to raise the girl, only hoping she can survive the chaotic times. But as the girl grows older, strange things keep happening: green shoots sprout from parched fields, disaster relief grain always arrives just as the village runs out, and even local officials treat her with great respect. Until one day, the crown prince and all his officials kneel before her and shout "Your Majesty!" Chen Laogen is completely stunned — the ordinary daughter he raised for over a decade is actually the exiled empress who fled the palace!
