Ulanara Yunzhi was reborn in the fifth year of Yongzheng’s reign, at the age when she was still awaiting marriage as a principal consort.

In her previous life, she had been virtuous and gentle, yet she was betrayed. Her family fell, and she died bitterly in the Cold Palace.

In this life, she returned with vengeance in her heart. The last traces of innocence had left her eyes, leaving only ice. The palace was a chessboard, and everyone was a pawn

Wicked palace girl? I’ll tear off your mask!

False sister? I’ll cut off your path to success!

White-moonlight rival? I’ll grind you to dust!

And the man on the Dragon Throne who had once betrayed her? She would scheme against his heart, disrupt his plans, and turn the realm upside down!

Watch as this corrupted, reborn noblewoman plans her every move, controlling the clouds and rain with a turn of her hand. She walks along the blade’s edge between imperial power and emotion. When the dust settles, will her all-consuming schemes finally set her free, or have they already doomed her to another downfall?
