In her previous life, Bai Ruiji experienced the emperor's favor and betrayal in the deep palace, meeting a tragic end and even losing her child. Filled with boundless hatred and endless regret, she unexpectedly returned to the early days of her time in the palace, before any of the tragedies had happened.
Reborn for a second life, Bai Ruiji has shed the innocence and brashness of her former self, becoming composed and calculating. She is no longer fixated on the emperor's fleeting favor. Her first priority is to protect the child she will have in the future, while seeking revenge on those who once hurt her.
As she proceeds with caution, keeping her true strength hidden, she deftly navigates the palace's schemes and rivalries. She must avoid the traps that ensnared her in her previous life and contend with former enemies like Gao Xiyue, while carefully managing her relationship with the emperor, securing some protection without repeating past mistakes. She will also reassess her relationships with palace figures such as Wei Yingluo, seeking a way to survive amid the complicated power struggles and striving to rewrite the fates of herself and her child, so that her life in this new age can bloom again.
