Jiang Yanwan, who was once the Lord of the Sixth Palace, suddenly fell from the phoenix throne into the quagmire of the cold palace due to an unfounded crime of adultery. He was forced to kneel in the rainstorm and poisoned, the former emperor looked on with cold eyes, and the new favorite concubine smiled with a knife hidden in her face. She thought her life was ruined and her love and hate turned into ashes.
However, when she glimpses the cracks in the conspiracy in the despair of the cold palace, when loyal servants protect each other with their lives, and when mysterious help comes quietly, she is shocked to realize that all this is just a carefully planned chess game. The emperor who once made her fall in love and her heart died seemed to have an unknown secret buried in his heart.
From this moment on, the deposed queen is dead. She returned from hell, curbed her sharpness, hid her hatred, and secretly weaved a web in a corner where no one was paying attention. This man-eating palace once crushed her into dust, but now it will become a battlefield for her every step of the way. In this nine-layer palace, she will use wisdom as a blade and human hearts as chess to uncover the truth, take back everything that belongs to her, and make those who betrayed her, bullied her, and betrayed her pay with their blood.
