Before her death, Qun Qing hated the powerful official Lu Hua Ting the most. She hated him for assisting the new emperor and for being cunning and insidious. She thought about him day and night, and tried her best to defeat him, but she was not his match. In the end, she became a cannon fodder in his hands.
After Qun Qing died, she saw the princess of the fallen country that she had protected with her life, crying and leaning on the new emperor’s chest: “Qun Qing is dead, what should I do?”
The new emperor kissed her: “You will be fine, just love me.”
The princess burst into tears, like a delicate flower under the rain: “Qun Qing is dead, Your Majesty is all I have left.”
When she opened his eyes, Qun Qing had woke up three years ago. She stood up, woodenly packed her bags, and regardless of the princess’s obstruction, took off her jade crown and walked away, dropped her female official’s wooden seal, turned around and left, leaving behind ten years of careful planning and treading on thin ice.
Restore the country? Pfft, restore it my foot.

The powerful minister Lu Hua Ting, is deeply cunning, ruthless, and dominates the power struggles of the court. Tired of the ugly nature of human hearts, his life has become dull and unfulfilling.
Looking back on his life, the only thing that left an impression was a female officer, a spy. whom he poisoned to death at the age of 26.
For the love of the princess, she sacrificed his life for the country and schemed against him several times. In the end, she knelt in front of the Summer Palace, her facial expression remaining unchanged, with a look of resentment in her eyes, and sighed with a smile, “The king who wins is the ruler, and the one who loses is the defeated,”, before raising her head to drinking to the last drop. Blood gushed out of her mouth, a thin layer of bright red.
When he opened his eyes again, Lu Hua Ting returned to his 23 year old self.
Lu Hua Ting looked at the documents under his command, and felt even more bored. He put down his brush and leaned on the back of the chair: “Where is the female official accompanying Crown Princess?”
“… She resigned. She asked me to tell My lord that she would not fight anymore.”
Lu Hua Ting was silent for a while, and curled his lips coldly: “She said she won’t fight, so the fight is over?”
