"Fengque Returns: Zhu Shi Yixiu" is a rebirth fan novel based on the original work "The Legend of Zhen Huan in the Harem". It takes the Queen of the Middle Palace Zhu Yixiu as the absolute protagonist and retells her second life in the palace with red walls.
In the cold winter of the seventh year of Qi Yuan, Zhu Yixiu, who was deposed from the throne and imprisoned in a cold palace, breathed his last, filled with regret for his past life - she tried her best to keep the throne, but ended up with everyone betraying her relatives and losing her heart. She regarded the harem as a battlefield and all women as enemies, and was ultimately left alone and helpless; she was enveloped in the shadow of the "Pure Yuan Substitute" her whole life, and never really entered Xuan Ling's heart.
However, when she opened her eyes and woke up, she was back to the time when the tragedy had not yet happened: the pain of Chun Yuan's death was still there, Concubine Hua's arrogance was beginning to show its strength, Zhen Huan had not yet stepped into the palace, and she was still the legitimate queen of the Central Palace of the Zhou harem.
With the memories and lessons from his previous life, Zhu Yixiu lost his paranoia and cruelty and became more calm and transparent. She is no longer obsessed with the dilemma of the "Poison Queen", but re-examines every move in the harem with a more subtle layout:
For Xuan Ling, she no longer insists on pure preference, but instead acts as a "interpreter", offering a cup of hot tea when political affairs are troubled, and saying a few words of love in the lonely night, making the emperor's heart tilt toward her unconsciously; the red wall remains the same, the phoenix seal is re-gripped, in this life, Zhu Yixiu wants the candlelight of Kunning Palace to illuminate no longer the lonely night, but her own, step-by-step new life.
