She was the legitimate daughter of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, and she was also the most noble queen in the Great Abyss.
In her previous life, she followed her mother's instructions and was gentle, courteous and thrifty. She believed that as long as she stayed in her own right, she would be able to maintain her position and preserve her family. But the concubine's frame-ups became more vicious each time, and the emperor's patience grew weaker day by day. In the end, she was sentenced to death in the cold palace in a bowl of poisonous wine - before she died, the news that all the members of the Hou family were executed was echoing in her ears.
She died with hatred, but she didn't expect that God would give her a chance to do it again.
Returning to her wedding night, facing the man who pushed her into the abyss in her previous life, Qin Shuying lost her meekness and revealed her sharp edge. She no longer fights for favor, what she wants is power; she no longer tolerates, what she wants is life - none of those who owe her can escape.
Emperor Ji Yan, who had been dormant for many years as the "laid-back prince", chose Qin Shuying as his queen after he ascended the throne because she "seemed" to be law-abiding and easy to control. He thought she was an obedient chess piece, but he discovered that this chess piece was overturning his chessboard step by step.
She is his queen, his opponent, his military advisor, and the only woman he dare not underestimate.
When power and affection are intertwined, when power and sincerity confront each other——
She asked him: "Do you want the country or me?"
He replied: "The country is given to you, and you belong to me."
This is the story of a woman who went from being a mere skeleton in a cold palace to becoming the most powerful woman in the world.
In this life, she doesn't want the dignity given by anyone, she wants to earn the world with her own hands.
