Summary notes spoiler-light, read before episode 1

In short: 76 episodes, in English, original audio — episodes 1–10 play right here.

The ruthless Empress Dowager Emily was reborn. In her previous life, she poisoned the emperor, colluded with court officials, forced a pregnant concubine to miscarry through drugs, and plotted against the young crown prince, all to push her own son onto the throne. Every scheme was a life-and-death gamble, crushing her stepson under her heel at any cost. Yet the son she worked so hard to promote stabbed her in the back when their plans fell apart.

After a lifetime of ruthless effort, she met such an end. This time, Emily no longer wanted to struggle. She only wished to relax and live idly as a carefree empress dowager.

Study tip: the first 10 episodes set up every conflict that the remaining 66 episodes pay off — watch them back to back before you decide whether to continue.
