In her previous life, she was Liu Yunshang, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Personnel's family. But because of her kind heart, her half-sister and stepmother conspired against her, ruining her reputation and forcing her to take her half-sister's place as a concubine in the cold and indifferent Prince Huaiyang's household, where she endured endless humiliation. In the end, with extraordinary intelligence and tenacity, she rose step by step through the treacherous palace power struggles to become Empress Dowager. She ruled from behind the curtain for twenty years, wielding power over the realm. Yet just as she died of old age, believing everything had finally settled, she opened her eyes again and found herself back at fifteen, at the turning point of her fate: she had just been framed and made to fall into the water, and her reputation was in tatters.
In this life, the Empress Dowager's soul awakens in a young girl's body. All her enemies are still alive, and all the schemes have only just begun. Armed with the memories of her previous life, she can see through people's hearts and knows how the future will unfold. At home, she will put her family in order, settle accounts with her stepmother and half-sister, and reclaim everything that belongs to her. Beyond the household, she will plan ahead and befriend the future power brokers and emperors, taking her fate firmly into her own hands. Watch as she uses a young girl's body to carry out the schemes of a seasoned strategist, outmaneuvering her rivals in the household and stirring up storms in the palace. She will trample underfoot, one by one, those who betrayed, deceived, and humiliated her in her past life, and write a new chapter in the splendor of a legitimate daughter as she rises to a peak even greater than before.
