Jiang Yingli, the daughter of a merchant, only wanted stability. She chose Xiao Chenglan, the down-and-out king of Su, as her concubine to avoid disputes, and she lived a peaceful life for four years. Xiao Chenglan unexpectedly ascended the throne, and she became the only one who was hiding in the palace. She took the initiative to surrender to Jieyu to save her life. The paranoid emperor doted on her alone, overpowering all the concubines in the draft. In the harem, Su Qingrong fought against the Queen Mother to target Jiang Yingli. Zheng Baolin was coerced into plotting against her, and Song Wanyan became her reliable ally. While Jiang Yingli was avoiding palace fights and just wanted to be safe, she was favored by Xiao Bubu, and the two were saved in both directions. Subsequently, relatives of the Jiang family took the opportunity to send their cousin into the palace to stir up trouble. Various aristocratic families and the queen mother checked and balanced the game. Under the protection of the emperor, Jiang Yingli lost her timidity and finally took the throne firmly.
