During the Qianlong reign of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the imperial power was in turmoil and wars broke out frequently in northern Xinjiang. In order to check and balance the dynasty and win over the forces of Zhenbei Hou, Emperor Zhou Jinchen ordered to marry the twin daughters of the Hou Mansion, Shen Qingyi and Shen Qinglan, and canonize them as concubines, which broke the original balance in the harem.
The sisters, who were deeply in love before entering the palace, have since embarked on completely different paths under the coercion of the red-walled palace. The elder sister Shen Qingyi is dignified and smart, does not like to compete for favors but has amazing insights. Because her temperament is similar to that of the emperor's late Queen Chunyuan, she is both respected and hated. The younger sister Shen Qinglan is delicate and fiery. She longs for the emperor's exclusive favor, but gradually becomes paranoid driven by jealousy and ambition.
In the harem, Duan Guifei Su Yueyao has hidden evil intentions and uses witchcraft, frame-up and other means to stir up discord among the sisters; above the court, powerful ministers collude with Northern Xinjiang to launch a palace coup, and crises are everywhere. From supporting each other to turning against each other, from being innocent and innocent to fighting each other step by step, the two sisters struggled to grow up in the whirlpool of family honor and disgrace, personal love, and the country and the country. Final. After the chaos was settled and Concubine Duan's conspiracy was exposed, Shen Qinglan suddenly woke up and left the palace to practice cultivation. Shen Qingyi put aside the love between her children and took over the Phoenix Seal, guarding the country with "great love and responsibility" and becoming a true empress of the world. She completed the transformation from "orchid grass" to "phoenix" during her years in the palace.
