Synopsis: Serenade of Peaceful Joy 2020

A story that Emperor Renzong of Song follows as he struggles between maintaining his ideologies for governing the country and his love for his daughter. Emperor Renzong of Song, personal name Zhao Zhen, discovers that Empress Dowager Liu E is not his birth mother and that his real mother is Li Lanhui, a Dowager Empress Dowager. Beaten by debt, he thought to repay the Li family by marrying his most precious daughter, Princess Huirou, to Li's descendant Li Wei. Within the royal court, the emperor goes to great lengths to maintain the balance between tradition and reform. However, he is also concerned about his daughter's affairs. Huirou has developed deep feelings for Huaiji, a eunuch who grew up next to her. Unwilling to accept the boring and simply-minded Li Wei, she conflicts with her in-laws and breaks the strictest rules imposed by the empire, leaving the Emperor faced with a difficult dilemma.
