Once she fell from the queen's throne and was banished to the cold palace, Meng Wanling thought that her life script had reached its finale - a bad ending. There are concubines in the harem who are eyeing her in front of her, and there are political enemies in the back who want her to disappear completely. She has bad cards in her hands, and it is a dead end no matter how she looks at it. In order to survive, Meng Wanling turned her attention to the only "living animals" in the cold palace: sparrows, wild cats, foxes, and even burrowing mice. What is dirty in other people's eyes becomes meat and potatoes in her eyes. No money? Train sparrows to form a "scavenger brigade" to pick up gold hairpins and jade pendants dropped from various palaces. No information? If you have a good relationship with a wild cat, who has a secret meeting in the middle of the night, or secretly brews abortion pills, the gossip around the cat's food bowl will not stop the next day. Want to fight back? Make friends with the weasel behind the cold palace, smoke out your enemies, and make sure they can't eat for three days. Gradually, the entire palace became Meng Wanling's "zoo" and "intelligence network." The aloof tyrant Emperor Xiao Yan found that the secret guards and spies he was so proud of were not as useful as a cat in the cold palace. One day, the secret guard commander came to report solemnly: "Your Majesty, the Dongzhu stolen from the Imperial Concubine's Palace last night was... Found on the neck of the orange cat in the Queen's Palace." Xiao Yan: "..." Another day: "Your Majesty, the location where the Prime Minister secretly hid his weapons was exposed after a group of rats dug it up. It is said that the leader was a giant rat from the cold palace..." Xiao Yan couldn't bear it anymore and went to the cold palace, only to see his abandoned queen who should have been haggard and haggard, leisurely smoothing the fur of a fox.
