After transmigrating, An Zhiwei, a PhD in agricultural science, became An Bihuai, the heartless scoundrel who drove his own daughter An Lingrong to her death in Empresses in the Palace!
In his memories, An Lingrong was timid and cautious. After entering the palace, she endured endless bullying and torment, and ultimately met a tragic end by taking poison.
Looking at his timid little daughter before him, her eyes full of insecurity, An Zhiwei clenched his fists. He would never let that tragedy happen again.
Others looked down on Lingrong for her low birth? He would set the An family in order, seize power at court, and become a force to be reckoned with. No one would dare insult the daughter of Chancellor An!
The consorts schemed against her, while Zhen Huan and Meizhuang kept their distance? He would pave her way with gold, treasures, connections, and influence. Whoever dared lay a finger on her would see An tear out the very roots of their power!
The emperor was heartless and treated her like a pawn? Then the dragon throne should belong to a descendant of the An family!
An Zhiwei would build his power at court, wielding absolute authority as the most powerful official in the land;
he would protect her as she climbed to glory, clear every obstacle from her path, and personally raise her to the phoenix throne as the one and only empress!
Years later, An Lingrong leaned against him, her eyes red-rimmed. “Father, everyone says your daughter is lowborn and worthless. You alone have ever treated me with true affection.”
An Zhiwei gently stroked the top of her head, his eyes sharp with resolve. “As long as I live, no one in this land will bully you. The empress's throne was always meant for you.”
