In his previous life, Qi Yan was reduced to a puppet emperor. He was given poisoned wine by his uncle, the regent Yu Shuheng, whom he trusted completely, and died tragically in the palace.
Once he was reborn, he returned to the beginning of his ascension to the throne, with imperial power falling and undercurrents surging in both the government and the public.
In this life, he put away his edge, pretended to be weak and cowardly, and used himself as bait to seduce him step by step.
Tempt him to make an exception, lure him to be tempted, lure him to break through the taboo shackles of monarchy and ministerial status, lure him to fight for himself against the noble families, feudal kings, and civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and be willing to perish.
Yu Shuheng, the cold-faced regent with overwhelming power, fell step by step, guarded paranoidly, and defied the world for love.
But he didn't know that this hot and affectionate love was a revenge chess game carefully laid by the young man from beginning to end.
When the power is in hand and love and hate are settled, that's when he will crush everything with his own hands.
Intention: Return after rebirth, use your body as bait to lure him into sinking, but both fall in the chess game, and ultimately redeem each other.
