Su Wan, an archaeology student, hears a sigh "Alas, why can't I meet you" from the Northern Song painting *Zhao Xue Tu* (The Painting of Zhao's Redemption) while restoring it. When she touches the jade pendant on the general in the painting, she travels back to the third year of Xining Reign (1070 AD)—Xie Zhao, the teenager in the painting, is being framed for treason and will be executed. Su Wan tries her best to save him, only to learn that Xie Zhao has been waiting for her for three lifetimes: a thousand years ago, he died to protect her and sealed his memories in the painting with the jade pendant, just to meet her again in this life. But when they finally recognize each other, Gu Mingyuan, a modern cultural relics doctor with the same jade pendant, appears in the museum. Are the bonds of the three "Xie Zhao" a past-life obsession or a present-life redemption?
