After failing to ascend, Tao Yaoyao unexpectedly finds her soul in the body of an unloved illegitimate daughter of the Minister of Works. In a bizarre turn of events, she also has an embarrassingly intimate encounter with Han Bing, the chief eunuch.
Just as she is wondering how to keep a low profile, raise a child, and scrape by in ancient times, her family sends her into the imperial palace to compete for the emperor’s favor.
Pregnant Tao Yaoyao charms her way through the scheming harem, and with Han Bing protecting her, she surges ahead until she takes the throne as empress dowager!
From then on, she lives the carefree life everyone envies.
Xiaolian: Master, don’t forget you’re here to weather a tribulation.
Tao Yaoyao: No rush, no rush!
