Leng Yuan was the legitimate daughter of a prestigious military family. But when her father was defeated in battle and convicted of a crime, she was sent to the palace and became the lowest-ranking convict servant.
In her previous life, she was assigned to serve the palace consort Lin Qingxue. To protect her family and clear her father’s name, she helped Lin Qingxue rise from a low-ranking concubine to empress. In the end, she was discarded once she had served her purpose, while the emperor Baili Heng, who had been determined to restore the dynasty to its former glory, was also brought down by the powerful consort’s family.
Reborn, Leng Yuan keeps a low profile by the Empress Dowager’s side, rising from convict servant to palace official. She helps the puppet emperor Baili Heng, who has hidden his abilities for years, bring order to the inner palace and root out the powerful consort’s family. In this life, she wants her family to live in peace, the kingdom to prosper, and a bright path for women to enter government service...
