In his previous life, he was Xiao Jue, the powerful regent. During the struggle for imperial power, he was beheaded by the eldest princess Ji Mingyue with her sword.
After resurrecting his life, he hid his monstrous plan and was willing to become a shadow. Above the court, he was her biggest political enemy; behind the curtain, he was the driving force behind her efforts to root out traitors and pave the way for her to become an emperor. He calculated everything just to atone for his previous sins, and when she came to rule the world, he would retire and hide in the green mountains.
However, when he really left in white after the enthronement ceremony, the new emperor Ji Mingyue personally led the troops straight into the depths of the clouds. She cut off his retreat and said loudly:
"Uncle Emperor, you have secured thousands of miles of land for me, but you want to enjoy the purity alone? My dynasty needs an eternal chief assistant."
What he wants is a glimpse of green mountains, and she is willing to use the mountains and rivers as a cage.
