Emperor Li (Shakespeare's Claudius) has murdered his brother and upon acceding the throne, has taken his brother's young wife, Empress Wan (younger version of Shakespeare's Gertrude) as his wife and has her recrowned as Empress.

The usurping emperor then sents out riders to assassinate his nephew, Crown Prince Wu Luan (Shakespeare's Hamlet), who would succeed the throne before any of his uncle's progeny. The crown prince, away at a retreat for masked mime actors, survives the massacre at the monastery and is eventually spirited back to the palace.

To keep him alive, Empress Wan has made a compromise with his uncle, which angers Prince Wu Luan. His relationship with his stepmother is unusual because they grew up together in the court, are about the same age and she has romantic feelings for him.

However, the prince is engaged to marry Qing Nu (Shakespeare's Ophelia), the daughter of a palace official, the Grand Marshal (who can be linked to Shakespeare's Polonius). A close ally of the former emperor, the Grand Marshall's power is weakened when his son (Shakespeare's Laertes), who is very protective of his sister, Qing Nu, is sent to a distant province to become governor.

Meanwhile, the Empress Wan is to have a new coronation ceremony. As a special treat, Prince Wu Luan, an accomplished singer and dancer, stages a masked mime play that exposes his uncle as his father's murderer.

Rather than kill the prince and risk alienating Empress Wan, the emperor decides the prince would be traded as a hostage for the prince of a neighboring kingdom, the Khitans, although it is known that the neighbor prince is an imposter. An ambush by the emperor's men is set up in a far away, snowy land, but the Grand Marshal's son saves the prince.

先帝驾崩，太子巡游在外。皇叔篡位并自封厉帝执掌朝政。身为当朝太子后母却又是与太子自小青梅竹马的婉后迫于无奈，委身厉帝，并希冀以此保太子周全。
　　但是，刚刚得知父皇驾崩消息的太子，却在其竹海的伎馆遭遇了一场生死之战。厉帝在诛杀太子的同时也在先皇的宫廷开始了排除异己确立皇权的屠杀。婉后为求自保，在这场政治争夺中成为了厉帝的帮凶，同时对权力的企及也在她心底日益萌生。同时被迫臣服于厉帝却持有异心的还有太守殷太常。
　　殷太常之子殷隼乃是当朝虎将，其女青女更是早已许婚太子。大势所趋之下，识时务的殷太常开始阻止青女与太子的交往，并极力想在新的王朝确立自己的地位。谁料青女痴情于太子，并梦见太子回朝。
　　当太子无鸾出现在婉后面前，婉后抱住少年时的情人，仿若生死两别。但是无鸾一声：“母后”将她残酷的推开。她不再是无鸾少年时习武的陪伴者，她不再是无鸾的后母，此时，她将成为新的皇后，成就新的皇权，并以她昔日的身份和荣耀，助篡位者猖。
　　于是，这本该灭绝的王朝开始了一场新的混乱……
