Shen Yuan'an was ordered to enter the palace at the age of sixteen. Everyone envied her that she came from a family with military exploits. Her father and brother were very influential in the court and had full confidence. The eldest sister Shen Yuanxin was in the position of a concubine and had support in the palace.
But there is never a smooth road in the Jiuzhong Palace, the edge is hidden under the smile, and the ups and downs of favor are all a chess game.
She restrained her boudoir gentleness and was cautious in her words and deeds. She did not ask for divine favor, but only wanted to grow old in peace. After half a lifetime of ups and downs in the palace, looking back, it is just an old dream in the red wall.
Concept: The red wall is both glory and a prison. Shen Yuan'an did not come here to compete for favors. She was pushed into the harem by fate and saw beautiful flowers and cold hearts. She values family affection and the bottom line more than the fleeting favor of the emperor. Caught between the imperial power and the family, she uses forbearance and wisdom to survive, writes about the involuntary fate of women in the palace, and explores what it means to protect oneself in the palace.
