Consort Hua Reborn in Empresses in the Palace, and Chooses to Defy the Emperor

Consort Hua Nian Shilan is reborn. From the moment she died, she understood just how heartless the man who shared the pain of her lost child with Zhen Huan truly was. All the musk her brother sent from the northwest had been used in the Huanyi Incense meant exclusively for her. Only then did Nian Shilan realize that all the pride she had felt in her life was nothing but a joke. She hated him! She is reborn, back when Yixiu was pregnant, when Chun Yuan entered the household to care for Yixiu... She tears away the facade of Chun Yuan, the unattainable ideal, and leaves Chun Yuan's son for Yixiu to raise. She ensures Qi Yuebin becomes pregnant early and treats Cao Qinmo with genuine sincerity. She quietly looks after Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan, helps Shen Meizhuang gain the right to assist in managing the six palaces, and helps Zhen Huan see through Yinzhen's heartlessness sooner. In this life, even after enduring countless indignities, she eventually earns the emperor's suspicion. After giving birth to one daughter and three sons, Nian Shilan finally decides she won't endure it anymore. She builds military influence outside the palace and cultivates ties with the imperial family within. She really wants to rebel. [No romance between Guo Junwang and Zhen Huan. She'll be prompted to see through Guo Junwang's flirtatious nature.] [Yixiu and Lingrong are villains. Hu Yunrong will have an expanded role.] [An Lingrong and Guo Junwang have a romance. He's a flirtatious prince, and she's an obsessive palace consort.]
