In the third year of Dasheng Yong'an, the cold wind in the cold palace could not dissipate Shen Qingyan's hatred.
She was the founding queen. She spent all the military power and financial resources of the government to help the third prince Xiao Jingyan rise from a powerless prince to the throne of the emperor. However, in exchange, more than 300 members of the family were beheaded in public. She was deposed and drank the poisonous wine handed to her by her concubine Shen Qingrou, and died with hatred.
On her deathbed, the imperial edict that the regent Xiao Jue was sentenced to Lingchi was the last piercing sight for her - it turned out that the uncle, the God of War, who had always been feared by Jamel Xiao, died on the same day as her, and was also a victim of this conspiracy.
With her heart burning with fire, she made a blood oath: If there is an afterlife, she will let the scumbag rape his concubine and break her bones into ashes!
Once she was reborn, she returned to the eve of the draft when she was seventeen years old. Aunt Liu's vicious plan to disfigure her face, Shen Qingrou's hypocritical pretense, and Jamel Xiao's false marriage proposal were all under her eyes.
In this life, she put away all her gentleness, was sinister and calm, and worked every step of the way: intercepting poisonous plots, tearing off the mask, breaking off bad relationships, being drafted into the palace to avoid being exposed, using medicine and tactics to gain a foothold in the harem and protect the Shen family.
But the gears of fate were completely different from those in the previous life - the cold-faced and taciturn regent Xiao Jue was actually reborn.
He often quietly revealed the truth when she was in danger, and there was an extreme pull hidden in every step of testing. Besides the cruelty in his eyes, there was deep affection and obsession that she couldn't understand.
"Shen Qingyan, you have changed."
"Xiao Jue, the same goes for you."
From the temptation of mutual suspicion, to the tacit alliance, to the fetters of life and death, she used the harem as a chessboard to leverage the influence of the previous dynasty, and he used the military power of the capital as a sharp blade to wipe out the remnants of treacherous traitors.
