She resided in the Shangyang Palace in Luoyang, where palace maids Meng Fan and Meng Fu found themselves entangled in the bloody power struggles of the harem. With the help of eunuch Xiao Ma, Meng Fan managed to survive in the treacherous palace.
Empress Wei, driven by her ambitions, meddled in political affairs, while Wu Sansi gained favor, causing chaos in the court. Meng Fan befriended Shangguan Wan'er and deeply felt the hardships of survival within the palace. Princess Anle, desiring the emperor's affection, used Meng Fu to conspire with Empress Wei to eliminate the Crown Prince Li Zhongjun.
Princess Taiping sent Meng Fan to contact Li Longji, and a secret affection blossomed between them. To assist Li Longji in his pursuit of success, Meng Fan agreed to become Emperor Zhongzong's consort and exposed the ambitions of Empress Wei and Princess Anle. Empress Wei and Princess Anle conspired to poison Emperor Zhongzong, who, aware of their plot, drank the poison. Crown Prince Li Zhongmao ascended the throne, with Empress Wei becoming the Empress Dowager and ruling as a regent.
Meng Fan negotiated with the condition of sparing Meng Fu and Princess Anle's lives, and she played a crucial role in Li Longji's rebellion, successfully overthrowing the regime. Meng Fu and Princess Anle were executed, while Shangguan Wan'er met her tragic end. Behind the scenes of power and prominence, who would know the loneliness and despair? How would they face the endless fear after losing their grip on power? No longer commanding authority and losing their former beauty, they no longer received the prostration of courtiers and people. Perhaps the sunset would never witness the dawn of a new reign again, drowning Empress Wu Zetian's later years in suspicion and restlessness. Unable to let go of the prestige and absolute power, she unleashed a wave of killings.
The bloody power struggles unfolded in the harem, with innocent palace maids and eunuchs becoming victims. Sisters Meng Fan and Meng Fu were deeply trapped, but thanks to the clandestine assistance of eunuch Xiao Ma, they escaped the calamity.
Empress Wu selected new personal maids, and the palace maids sought to avoid being chosen to save their lives. Unfortunately, Xiaoyu was chosen, and her sister Meng Fan volunteered to protect her, a decision that would forever change her life.
