The emperor has a favored consort named Gu Yanxu.
From the court to the common people, everyone calls Gu Yanxu a wicked consort who will bring the kingdom to ruin.
But in truth, she was merely the most sought-after courtesan at Yuxian Pavilion, until a chance encounter led her into the imperial palace.
For twelve years, she maneuvered at the emperor's side, rising step by step from a low-ranking beauty to empress dowager.
Her notorious reputation as a temptress was simply a grand design beyond the understanding of ordinary people.
The struggles of the inner palace have ended, but her real life is only just beginning.
With a carefree, lazy smile curling her lips, she murmurs, "I am the wicked consort who threw the court into chaos, and you are the eunuch who holds power over it. With such notorious names and the whole world against us, I suppose we really are made for each other."
He raises a hand and firmly draws her by the waist. Tilting his head slightly, he gazes at her with tender affection and laughs softly, his voice warm and gentle. "Your Highness is quite right. You and I belong together, and in this life, we will always have each other."
