[Matriarchal Society + Multiple Male Leads + Evil Couple, No Redemption + Coercive Possession + Rivalry Among Suitors]
[The woman is not pure; all the men are]
Zhu Lian has a strange dream every night. In it, she has another identity: Feng Ruanian, the foolish and tyrannical empress of the Wuyan Kingdom.
She trusts treacherous ministers and dotes on a bewitching empress consort, spending lavishly to build Wangshu Tower just to make her beauty smile.
The empress consort pretends to cry, and a hundred thousand corpses pile up in the capital, with blood flowing for a thousand miles.
In the end, she is condemned by the world and remembered for all eternity as a disgrace.

A man in a black cloak gives a low laugh as he removes the hideous demon mask from his face. His crimson lips curl up. “Niannian, long time no see!”
“Niannian, debts must be repaid!”
“Niannian, please kill me one more time!”
Zhu Lian thinks the damned demon lord can’t stand the sight of her. She tries every way she can to escape him, then turns around and flirts with a whole host of handsome men.
The bewitchingly beautiful regent, dressed in crimson and impossible to tell apart by sex, draws her into his arms and gently coaxes, “Lian’er, forget him and fall in love with me, all right?”
The best assassin in the martial world cherishes her in his hands. “Lian’er, don’t listen to him! I’m willing to give you my heart!”
The decisive general, who has fought countless battles, bends his pride for her. “Lian’er, don’t believe a word he says! He’s full of tricks, and his heart is black!”
The aloof Imperial Preceptor, the merman prince, the Poison Cult leader… one after another, they all become devoted to her.
…
Seeing the many outstanding suitors surrounding his wife, the scheming and ruthless mad Lord can no longer sit still. He brings along two little bundles and comes to demand an explanation. “How do you explain abandoning your husband and children?”
