When he woke up, Shen Qingxian, a modern white-collar worker, became Yu Wenduo, the "sudden death" prince of the Zhou Dynasty. Facing the eyeing regent and the clan with ulterior motives, she had no choice but to inherit the throne as a man and become the young emperor. With the help of modern thinking and mysterious systems, she eliminated corruption with an iron fist, implemented the New Deal, resisted foreign aggression, consolidated imperial power step by step, and achieved the reputation of a generation of "wise monarchs".
However, the secret of her daughter's body is like a sharp sword hanging from the top. The opposition between the government and the opposition is pressing harder and harder, and the old forces' crazy counterattack pushes her to the edge of the abyss. In order to protect the country, she resolutely planned a shocking "Zen position" drama. The golden cicada escaped from its shell and disappeared into the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River.
Transformed into "Mr. Shen", she continued to guide the country behind the scenes, but she attracted new kings to explore and old enemies to pursue her. When the Emperor Star tours south again and the truth is on the verge of being exposed, how will she choose? Is it to go into seclusion completely and keep the secret until the end of one's life? Or should he comply with the call of the system, return to modern times, and end this relationship that spans time and space?
This is the ultimate game of strategy and emotion, a legendary epic of an empress between her family, the world, and her own destiny.
