In her past life, she trusted the empress, lost everything, and ultimately died a miserable death in Yanxi Palace after eating bitter apricot kernels.
Reborn into a new life, An Lingrong opened her eyes to find she had returned to the year she first entered the palace and met Sister Zhen!
The betrayal and regret of her previous life remained vivid in her mind. This time, armed with mastery of palace intrigue, she swore to turn the tide and protect those she cared about!
[Consort Hua’s “One Hundred Feet of Red”? Hah. I won’t make Xia Dongchun’s foolish mistake, and I certainly won’t let Sister Zhen suffer such a fright!]
[The empress’s “Pure Yuan’s old clothes”? Sorry, but you won’t use a single old garment to scheme against me this time!]
[You want to use Scar-Softening Gel to harm Sister Zhen’s unborn child? I’ll use my own perfumed concoction to keep you too busy to act!]
[Lady Qi’s “blood test to determine kinship”? Just wait. I’ll make you pick up a rock and smash your own foot with it!]
Zhen Huan: Lingrong, thank goodness you’re here. Without your warning, I would have fallen into the abyss and never climbed out.
Shen Meizhuang: You’re clever and decisive, little sister. With you here, Huan’er and I can feel at ease.
In this life, she planned every move carefully, tearing apart Consort Hua’s tyranny and shattering the empress’s hypocrisy with her own hands.
The throne changed hands, and a new emperor ascended. In the end, she became the most powerful and honored woman in the Forbidden City, one whose word was law!
