Both of them were modern web novels, and there was no direct plagiarism between them. Palace Lock was based on the famous " Lock the Autumn " and Plum Blossom was based on the famous " His Highness the Fox ". Although these two novels were both modern web novels, their plots and characters were very different. Thus, Palace Lock Lian Cheng didn't plagiarize Plum Blossom Brand's storyline.
