The series features Bosco Wong as a young Di Renjie, Ruby Lin as Wu Meiniang (the future Wu Zetian) and Yuan Hong as Li Zhi, also known to history as Tang Gaozong. The series is set during the first years of Gaozong's reign, where Di and his friends first found themselves in royal company, but soon discovered various conspiracies involving court officials and old feuds, which threatened not only their lives, but also the fate of the Tang empire...

 Adapted Out: Li (Shi)Ji. note He was the third official entrusted by Taizong to assist Gaozong, and it was him who provided great assistance to Wu Meiniang becoming empress consort by reminding Gaozong that making anyone empress is the emperor's "family affair" and the emperor need not listen to others before making his decision.

 Artistic License – History: The cases in the series were fictional; the biggest historical upheavals in the imperial court during this period were actually (harem-wise) Wu Meiniang's quest to become empress consort and (court-wise) Gaozong's struggle to reclaim power from the officials imposed upon him by his father. Historically, by the start of the series, Li Zhi already had an empress (surnamed Wang), and it was Empress Wang who thought that it was a good idea to bring Wu Meiniang back from Ganye Temple, as Li Zhi was infatuated with Lady Xiao (holding the title of shufei). Historically, Wu was also never made "guifei"; her highest rank before becoming empress consort was "zhao yi". The masked head of the secret society and Big Bad of the series is Li Chengdao, Li Jiancheng's second son and heir, who historically died at the Xuan Wu Gate incident along with his father and younger brothers (His older brother Li Chengzong had died before the Xuan Wu Gate incident). His title was also the Prince of Anlu.
