Ye Jiayao is a contemporary celebrity chef who delights in traditional Chinese cuisine and frequently experiments with it. One day, a culinary trial goes awry, sending her back to antiquity where she assumes the identity of Ye Jin Xuan, a magistrate"s daughter. Upon awakening, she is abruptly seized and taken to Hei Fang Camp, where she encounters Xia Chun Yu—the bandit chief who is secretly the young lord of Jing An Marquis manor and an undercover operative for the king. He has infiltrated the Black Wind Fortress outlaws to uncover a conspiracy aimed at toppling the monarch. The pair enter into a sham marriage, and Ye Jiayao gradually wins over hearts, including Xia Chun Yu"s, through her exceptional cooking and savvy modern tactics. Her culinary artistry also earns her respect among the camp"s hardened soldiers.
