During the Western Han Dynasty, the majestic dynasty was gradually heading towards decline. The impoverished sisters Zhao Feiyan (played by Zhao Mingming) and Zhao Hede (played by Yuan Li) arrived in Chang'an to seek refuge with relatives, but they suffered greatly from the harsh realities of life, humiliation, and bullying. Fortunately, both sisters were naturally beautiful, which allowed them to become dancers for a certain princess. Their intelligence combined with their beauty earned them favor, and later, Feiyan entered the palace through the introduction of the courtier Zhang Fang (played by Zhang Tielin). While Feiyan enjoyed the emperor's exclusive favor, she also brought Hede into the palace, and both sisters received the emperor's joy and affection simultaneously. However, palace life was fraught with danger; Empress Xu, filled with jealousy, used witchcraft to curse the sisters, and they gradually lost their initial innocence and kindness, attempting to eliminate every competitor, including Ban Jieyu (played by Li Jianqun). Furthermore, due to their inability to bear children, they went so far as to murder the dragon sons and grandsons born to the emperor and other palace maidens. 　　A legendary beauty's tale, yet also a tragic story that evokes deep sighs...
