[Palace and Household Intrigue] [The Powerful Man Bows His Head] [He Regrets Losing Her] [Face-Slapping and Punishing the Villains]
After entering the palace, Zhao Ninger is the lowest-ranking bedchamber concubine, relying on her figure to win the emperor’s favor and climb the ranks.
In Qi Luan’s eyes, she is soft and delicate, but not particularly clever. She is perfectly suited to being a plaything for bearing him heirs.
He keeps his heart out of it and only seeks physical pleasure.
But when she falls into danger, he realizes that he has long since fallen deeply in love with her.
He never expected that she would run away for the sake of “love.”
He swears he will hunt her down and imprison her for the rest of her life.
Zhao Ninger was once happy in her family home, until her stepmother plotted against her.
After climbing out of hell, she cultivates an alluring charm and casts off the bearing of a noblewoman.
She is determined to save her mother, then grind her enemies’ bones to dust.
She swears that in this life, she will never give her heart to a man again. Men will be nothing but stepping-stones to success.
Years later, she finally rises to the highest branch and becomes a phoenix.
He asks, “In your heart, which matters more: me, the emperor, or the empress’s throne?”
She smiles. “Naturally, Your Majesty.” You can’t compete with the throne.
From humbly fighting to survive to harboring great ambitions, she never shows her true face.
She plans every step, braves countless dangers, and does it all to rise to the top and reign supreme as empress.
