[Pure classical palace fighting + suspenseful truth + fake queen + let yourself go and indulge in eating and drinking in the mid-term + non-shuangjie]
In Zhimeng's hometown, a series of vicious cases of nails being pulled out of young girls in their prime occurred. One day, someone reported that some of the nails that had been pulled out were found in the spice shop run by Zhimeng and her sister Zhenxian. Zhenxian was executed for this, and Zhimeng disappeared from the local world.
A year later, Zhimeng transformed into the current empress, the legitimate daughter of Shen Yi, the first-rank leader of the imperial bodyguard.
It turns out that Shen Yi made a deal with Zhimeng. Zhimeng looks similar to his real legitimate daughter. Zhimeng secures the position in the middle palace for Shen Yi's sick daughter. Shen Yi investigates the truth about his sister Zhenxian's case on Zhimeng's behalf...
But two years later, a nail-pulling case similar to that of the previous year occurred in the palace, which led Zhi Meng to take back the palace phoenix seal and use his own power to investigate the truth of the case!
At the same time, Zhimeng discovered that Shen Yi had never investigated previous cases for her and had been perfunctory with Zhimeng. Therefore, Zhimeng no longer abided by etiquette in the harem and began to let himself go. When there were no clues about the case, he indulged in eating, drinking and having fun, and also wanted to deliberately seduce the current emperor...
Little did he know that Bai Yueguang, the childhood friend of Emperor Li Chengyi, was Zhimeng, and Zhimeng thought that the man he had seen for thousands of years when he was a child was Prince Jing, who looked similar to the emperor...
Who was the real murderer behind the case that year?
Zhimeng's true identity is just a spice girl?
Did the emperor fall in love with Bai Yueguang back then or Zhimeng who is alive today?
