Plot Summary:
Jiang Xinbai is a prince with a serious condition of face blindness, which has made him distrustful and distant.

As they travel together, they uncover secrets about the “Zornia grass” and the deeper reasons behind their individual missions. Their relationship evolves from mere companionship to a deep, fated love that transcends appearances. Along the way, they are joined by a group of friends and allies: Xu Tianming (Wang Yibo), a loyal warrior; Feng Qinglan (Zhao Liying), a skilled herbalist; Li Wei (Yang Yang), a mischievous trickster; and Zuo Meng (Dilraba Dilmurat), a fierce female warrior.
