“I want to overthrow the emperor. What do you suggest?”
For the nth time, Princess Anyang pays Li Changle a late-night visit.
“There are undercurrents stirring at court. I want you to investigate.”
For the nth time, the Empress summons Li Changle to her bedchamber.
Li Changle, double agent for the Empress of Great Zhou and Princess Anyang, says:
“I just want to slack off. Why is everyone coming to me? I'm done. This time, I'm definitely resigning and going home.”
“Going home? My dear subject, you've finally agreed. My harem will have only you.”
The Empress takes out an imperial decree she has kept for ages.
“Going home? Husband, you've finally come around. Let's consummate our marriage right now.”
Princess Anyang pulls out a red bridal veil.
