Gu Wan, a modern single mother, opens her eyes and transforms into Su Yueli, the queen of the cold palace.
She was originally timid and cowardly, and was sent to the west by the Queen Mother with a glass of poisonous wine; what was left to her was a dilapidated palace, a skinny seven-year-old little prince, and a death countdown that said he would be beheaded in three days.
She has no palace fighting skills, can't poison, can't pretend to be weak, and she doesn't even bother to fight for the emperor's rain and dew.
But she is a single mother in the 21st century - she will change the cold palace into a warm courtyard, teach the little prince to become a shady academic master, and turn the useless eunuchs and maids into an iron-blooded team.
But the real enemy is not the concubines in the harem, but the eunuch Li Dequan. This smiling tiger has survived three dynasties and has taken a fancy to the young prince as a puppet. He wants to help him ascend the throne and become the "Nine Thousand Years Old" himself.
He handed over the condition with a smile: "I will be the Queen Mother, and my servant will do the Emperor's affairs for you."
Gu Wan also smiled and replied: "My son can not be the emperor, but he must not be anyone's dog. If you don't understand - I will teach you until you can."
This is a secret battle between a deposed queen and a powerful eunuch, a story in which a mother uses all her wisdom and life to pave the way for her son.
When the little prince finally put on the dragon robe and was forced to kneel down and worship Li Dequan, the boy slowly raised his head and spoke in a childish but clear voice:
"My queen mother said that the emperor only kneels to his parents in heaven and earth. And you, are you worthy?"
