[Strong heroine + palace intrigue + political scheming]
Liu Yueru helped him ascend the throne, only to see her entire family sentenced to execution. She knelt outside the palace gates and begged to see him. The rain poured down, she lost the child in her womb, and she never even got to see the new emperor.
In the end, she had loved the wrong man.
Determined to avenge the souls of her family, who had died unjustly, Liu Yueru swallowed her disgust and worked her way back into favor, step by step. She fought her way through the harem and became empress, eventually turning herself into the purest white lotus in the emperor’s eyes.
When she became pregnant again, no one could have guessed that she had already been unfaithful.
The general stationed far away at the border heard the news and wished he could whisk this tempting beauty home.
