Beauty World, also known as Tang Gong Meiren Tianxia and World of a Beauty, is a Chinese fantasy-supernatural television series set in the Tang dynasty. It was directed by Lee Wai-chu, produced and written by Yu Zheng, and starred Zhang Ting, Ming Dow, Li Xiaolu, Mickey He, Zheng Guolin, Yang Mi and Tong Liya in the leading roles. The series is regarded as a counterpart to Beauty's Rival in Palace, a similar 2010 television series set in the Han Dynasty. It was first aired on 21 October 2011 on Guangzhou Zonghe Channel in mainland China.

Plot

There is mystery during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Tang. Empress Wang is accused of murdering the infant Princess Andingsi, the daughter of the Emperor and Wu Meiniang. There are also several rare incidents in the imperial palace. Helan Xin'er, a detective, and Ming Chongyan, Empress Wang's former lover, decide to investigate the mysteries.

By chance, Helan Xin'er arrives in a brothel. She meets the owner, who reveals herself to be the mother of the Emperor. The brother owner was once Empress Zhangsun's best friend and fell in love with Emperor Taizong of Tang. Empress Zhangsun betrayed her so the brothel owner switched their children at birth. Then who and where is Empress Zhangsun's child?

Another mystery is a lady named Qingluan. She is supposedly a white fox that saved the Emperor several years ago. The Emperor favors her, but Wu Meiniang is actually suspicious. The detectives later find out that she was a spy and the perpetrator of Princess Andingsi's murder is actually the Emperor, who wanted to get rid of Zhangsun Wuji.
