[Evil girl + palace fighting + revenge + intrigue + cultivation + stunning heroine + falling in love and killing each other + reversal of the ending]
From the moment Ling Hexi stepped into the palace gate, he knew that he was a pawn in the hands of the Queen Mother. She was dark and calm, with deep thoughts. In the harem of Yingying Yanyan, she hid her calculations in her gentle eyebrows, and forced herself to find a way out under the suspicious eyes of the new emperor Lin Junyun. Linjunyun's throne was not stable, and he was plagued by internal and external troubles. He was wary of everyone around him, but he could not see through the seemingly docile niece of the Queen Mother. In the palace, he encounters Qin Jingzhi, a prostitute from another country who is in dire straits. They both have their own agendas, but they reach a consensus through trials and games, and join forces to stir up trouble in the court. Machiavellian tactics are their weapons, temptation is their daily routine, falling in love and killing each other is their destiny. When the chess pieces become rebellious, when the protons hide their edge, this battle of power and love and hate is destined to burn up the entire imperial city at night.
