Synopsis
Liu Rumei, the only daughter of a second-rank minister, and the niece of the prime minister. Nineteen years old, talented and beautiful, famous all over the capital. Her father allowed her to choose her own son-in-law, but she rejected all suitors who crossed the threshold. As the year of Zhumei is about to pass, there are rumors that she will marry her childhood sweetheart cousin. But she just stood on the wall and fell in love with Shen, the new scholar who won three yuan in a row. Shen Buhua, the prime minister's most valued student, comes from a humble background and has extraordinary beauty. She was willing to break off the engagement and marry a minor official, becoming the laughing stock of the entire capital. On the wedding night, he didn't even take off his hijab: "Thanks to the wrong love, Shen has someone else in his heart. Forced by power, he has no choice but to follow." After that, he stayed in the study. She got him drunk, forced the ceremony, and became pregnant. Later, he was demoted to a remote small county, and she had a bumpy journey and gave birth to a son. She thought the two had been in love for a long time, but she didn't know - he married her only for power from beginning to end. The new emperor came to the throne, and Shen Buhua replaced the prime minister in just three years. Liu Shangshu and Tao Cheng were imprisoned one after another, and Liu Rumei finally understood: It was he who personally collected evidence of his uncle's crime and uprooted her family. She was exiled and her child was taken away from him. Several years of love between husband and wife only resulted in a divorce letter. During her exile, she took refuge in a Taoist temple and was accidentally killed in a sea of fire. Then, she was reborn. Reborn to the day when I first met Shen Fuyi. The spring breeze remains the same, and the eyebrows remain the same. In this life, she will never marry. She resolutely entered the palace and served the prince. The prince is weak and incompetent, has hidden diseases and is inhumane. After he ascended the throne, if she had nothing to show for herself, she would have no place to stand. After much thought, she could only borrow seeds—— She summoned Shen Buhuai privately, which was called a temporary measure, but in reality she could not forget her feelings. She drugged the emperor to create the illusion of sleeping with him, and successfully gave birth to a son. With her extraordinary intelligence and noble background, she was quickly appointed as the queen. While in charge of the harem, she was involved in the government affairs. She was tit-for-tat with Shen Fulai in the previous court, and they were equally powerful. Everyone knows that the prime minister and the queen are at odds with each other. But no one knew that he was the prince's real father. She preserved her family. She was in charge of court affairs, listened to politics from behind the curtain, and secretly cultivated spies. Only then did she gradually find out Shen Fulai's true identity - the prince of the previous dynasty who was known for his wisdom. When his subordinates rebelled and the royal family was massacred, he managed to escape and lived on the streets, but was saved by her as a young child. The emperor's virtue was not worthy of his position, and he was a prey to the common people. Everyone knew that he was not in the right position, and secretly missed the previous dynasty. In the early morning, the queen's power is growing, and the emperor wants to take advantage of her and get rid of Liu Rumei. She and Shen Buhua turned enemies into friends and joined forces to kill the emperor. He supported her wholeheartedly and promoted her to the position of queen. Her first decree after ascending the throne was to include the prime minister into the harem. The world was shaken. —— He was an orphan from the previous dynasty, and he only served as an official to usurp the throne and avenge his family and country. And she is his only variable. When he ransacked his house in his previous life, he found her old poetry manuscripts and found out that she was the woman who saved him back then - Bai Yueguang, whom he had never forgotten. And her uncle was the enemy who offered a plan to overthrow the previous dynasty and had his whole family executed. But he actually fell in love with her. He sent people to secretly protect her on her way to exile and saved her from danger many times. Until the Taoist temple where she lived caught fire, and he went to search for it himself, but only found her old xylophone. He was broken, raised his children alone, and vowed never to remarry. However, his plan to restore the country was discovered first by the scheming emperor, who used him to lure out the dissatisfied forces of the new dynasty, and eventually executed him for treason. Before he died, his last wish was to see her again. As soon as he opened his eyes, he was back to that banquet. The green peach blossoms on the wall are bright and eye-catching, but they are not as good as her eyes. In this life, he vowed to give her all his love. But he took the initiative to show his approach, but only received her coldness and alienation. What made him even more sad was that Liu Rumei rejected his proposal and married into the palace. He was cautious, and under the surface relationship with her political enemy, he always protected her and secretly delivered intelligence to the government and the opposition. He didn't even know who the blood of the child who was made the prince came from. He reminded her of the emperor's suspicions, helped her to listen to politics behind the curtain, and used the power of the old dynasty behind her to secretly help her overthrow the insidious emperor. After she ascended the throne, Shen Buhua looked at her sitting in the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard and could only stare. Aunt Xi taught him how to serve the king, and he accepted it with a wry smile. When ordered to go to bed, there is only one task—— Kneel on the washboard. After kneeling for thirty days, the Queen walked out from behind the curtain and lifted his chin with her delicate hand: "Master Prime Minister, are you still thinking about Bai Yueguang?" It turns out she knows everything. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her close to him, staring at the bright red lips with dark eyes: "Is there anyone else besides Your Majesty, Bai Yueguang?" Purpose: Love, brain, rebirth and career
