She was the only daughter of a well-educated family that had been prominent for centuries. Once she was relegated to a lowly status, she would never be able to stand up again.
She is an orphan girl who was divorced from the family of a loyal minister and good general.
She was the richest businesswoman in the Zhou Dynasty.
Her life was full of ups and downs, and she fell in love with a powerful and evil official for seventeen years.
When he finally ascended the throne, his son asked him: "Why... Don't you marry your mother?"
He said: "Because my father broke your mother's heart in the past. She has not fully trusted my father yet."
She said: "Mom is still watching."
Her journey as a businesswoman was taken step by step.
It took the sinister powerful minister ten years to finally understand her. Learn to wait for her where she is, learn to ask her subordinates for advice on beauty tricks, and learn to be silently jealous when she kisses the emperor.
Not forgiving and not being attached is the confidence she has earned over the past ten years.
This is Xie Lingzhao's story. This is the story of her and the most powerful man in the Zhou Dynasty from the age of nineteen to thirty-six.
The best love is not between you and me, but when we finally learn to leave free space for love.
