後宮佳麗三千，全部也屬於至高無上的皇帝。誰敢擔保說，三千個妃嬪也只心繫可能連一面也見不上的皇上？人與人之間總有明爭暗鬥，三千人之中，只被數人針對，也足以使人喘不過氣來。

自幼父母雙亡的李紫雲(安以軒飾)，被鄰居邵家收養，與邵家親生女兒邵春華一同生活。為報答邵家之恩，紫雲願意代替春華入宮成宮女，而真正的邵家千金則易名為邵清姿(呂一飾)。

春華入宮時，在位的皇帝明憲宗(蔣毅飾)冊立了萬貞兒(楊怡飾)為皇貴妃，使春華見到後宮中的恐怖。被送配司膳房的春華與剛認識的浣衣局宮婢柏含香(劉庭羽飾)，因緣際會考入樂工局，以為不用處身於人事鬥爭中，只需練好曲藝便可在宮中求存。這樣的想法實在太天真……

有姑母凌司正撐腰的凌七巧(劉娜萍飾)，視春華為死對頭，處處陷害，春華卻因此反被憲宗欣賞。另一邊廂，清姿的舞藝超凡被義父潘洪引薦，同樣獲得憲宗的歡心。眾女地位的提升，亦開始觸及到宮中其他人的神經，妒意萌生，萬貴妃怕地位不保，開始針對各人。

樂師楊永(馮紹峰飾)的兄長楊洛，因一次入宮遊玩而惹來殺身之禍，楊永因被萬貴妃賞識而有機會進樂工局，伺機調查兄長死亡真相，認識同屬樂工局的春華、含香，兩女亦對他漸生愛慕。萬料不到，憲宗因為一曲而封含香為宸妃，含香受寵若驚，其後更與清姿先後懷有龍種，卻仍然心繫楊永。真愛可見而不可及，後宮的愛情故事是如此複雜及可悲。

春華所彈奏的曲目，引起了西廠太監汪直(譚耀文飾)的注意，原來春華曾是汪直的救命恩人！汪直經常為萬貴妃辦事，處理「障礙」，但面對春華，汪直實在不忍下手，背後是想報恩還是真的喜歡上她？
