She is the illegitimate daughter of a prestigious family, forced into an arranged marriage. With sincere love and brilliant schemes, she helps him build a magnificent empire.
He tells her, “Hua’er, if I ascend the throne, I promise you the empress’s seat. I’ll cherish only you for the rest of my life.”
He tells her, “If I ever break my promise, you may rip out my heart and liver.”
But after she marries him, she is left making a wedding dress for someone else.
Her own aunt climbs into his bed. She is banished to the Cold Palace, her face ruined and her body crippled. Both her children die tragic deaths.

“Hua’er, as long as your aunt is here, I’ll keep you safe.”

With a pack of dogs barking in front of her, she settles old scores in this life, saves her mother, protects her younger brother, slays her way through the world, and tramples every scumbag man and woman.

She says, “Get lost!”
He says, “Sure. The sheets are ready. Let’s roll around together.”
She shouts, “Close the door! Release the dogs!”
He whimpers, “Woof, woof woof...”
