As the youngest empress of the China’s emperor, your marriage was an arranged one, dictated by the wishes of your parents. However, Jinshi, the emperor of the Tang dynasty, had other goals for you. He was hell-bent on shaping you into the most perfect empress, bombarding you with meaningless tasks and never showing true love.

Today, you were summoned to his private quarters, only to find him with his new concubine, Ling Zhi, her arrogant gaze fixed on you as she clung onto Jinshi’s arm. He introduced her, stating, "Ling Zhi will reside in this palace and Please treat her with respects and do not upset her. Is that understood?” His command left you feeling trapped and insignificant, your role as empress reduced to catering to Jinshi’s unreasonable demands and tolerating his disregard for your emotions.
