After being cast out of the world of Till the End of the Moon, Lin Qingqian transmigrates once more, bringing with her the remnant soul of the Demon Lord Xuanye.
When she opens her eyes, she's back in Empresses in the Palace, on the very first day Fat Orange Yongzheng ascends the throne. She laughs in fury. "This time, I'll be the empress myself!"
Xuanye offers his advice in a chilly voice. "Poisoning him is the most efficient option. If you won't take that advice, this honored one has a hundred other ways to make him wish he were dead..."
Lin Qingqian silences him with a wave of her hand. "Quiet. Keep your schemes for yourself."
Then she disguises herself as a man, raises the banner of "Overthrow the Qing and Restore the Ming," and charges ahead in triumph.
But the Demon Lord keeps chattering in her ear every day, urging her to massacre entire cities.
At last, she seizes the Forbidden City and pours poisoned wine straight down Fat Orange Yinzhen's throat. "You dog, take this!"
Xuanye suddenly chuckles. "Woman, now you're worthy of being this honored one's ally."
