Chess in Limbo

In the tenth year of Jing'an in the Liang Dynasty, Jing Lingyi was deposed and put into the cold palace. Both the government and the public knew that she was a cowardly and incompetent empress who had been bullied by the noble concubine Liu Rumei for ten years and did not dare to resist. However, in the cold palace, another face quietly emerged. She used charcoal to draw a network of relationships on the wall, controlled the situation in the harem through the intelligence network, and secretly planned for three years just to reverse the case. The truth is far crueler than anyone imagined: on his wedding night ten years ago, Emperor Li Chengyu didn't even lift his hijab, but forged the imperial status of Fengyi Palace on his living notes; every step of Liu Rumei's promotion after entering the palace was based on Jing Lingyi's forbearance; and three generations of the Jing family guarded the border and fought bloody battles with fifty thousand soldiers, but in exchange for the humiliation of being abandoned. Jing Lingyi's revenge is not a hysterical counterattack, but a precise chess game: she conquers the Taiyuan Hospital and judges Huo Xingzhou as a secret chess player, delivers clues to the emperor through Duan Shufei Cui Wantang, and uses the authority of Queen Mother Zhou to make the final decision, and finally makes the ironclad evidence of the Liu family's smuggling and treason and false pregnancy to deceive the emperor public. From the secret room of the cold palace to the court of Tai Chi Palace, what she won back was not the queen position, but herself. This novel and its characters are purely fictitious.
