Synopsis

Li Yunche:

“Wang Yichun, I didn’t marry you, I married your status as the legitimate daughter of the Prince of Zhennan. You’d better behave and fulfill your duties as empress. Besides, I don’t like you, so don’t imagine you can throw your weight around just because you’re empress. And don’t even dream of bearing a legitimate prince. My sons can only be born to the Imperial Noble Consort.”

Throw my weight around? Bear a legitimate prince? The empress shook her head. She’d never even thought about any of that.

The empress can’t be deposed without an imperial edict. As long as she doesn’t make any major mistakes, she’ll have status, a stipend, and all the food and drink she wants. What a wonderful life of doing nothing!

She was already the head of the Imperial Harem. What more could she ask for?
