Shen Qingyi, a humble concubine in the Hou family, was granted a marriage and became the abandoned concubine of the regent Xiao Jue. In the inner courtyard of the palace, she is a pawn for the powerful and powerful, a tool for him to warm his bed and vent his lust, and she is also the substitute and blood guide for Bai Yueguang in his heart. For five heart-wrenching years, she was walking on thin ice, barely surviving.
The moment Xiao Jue learned that she was pregnant with twins was the moment when Xiao Jue tried to take Bai Yueguang's life to save her. The overwhelming hatred burned away her obsession, so she set fire to the prison cage and faked her death to escape.
Five years later, an iron-blooded female queen emerged in the north, shocking everyone. When Xiao Jue's cavalry crossed the border, what they saw was not an abandoned woman begging for mercy, but the empress sitting on the throne and looking down on the world.
"Your Majesty, I... I'm late." The former arrogant regent knelt in front of the blood-stained map of mountains and rivers, begging her to look at him again. This time, it was up to him to experience heart-burning regret and walk through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, just to seek the right to kneel at her feet.
