They called her a genius, a beauty, the jewel of the capital. In her past life, it wasn't enough to save her family from a traitor's fate. Reborn, Shen Mingshu is done with being a jewel. She will be a blade. Her only weapon is a mysterious jade hairpin that whispers secrets of the past and future into her mind. It's a power that exposes the true villain behind her family's slaughter-a seemingly gentle prince with a heart of poison. Now, he's inviting her to his "poetry gatherings," laying a beautiful trap for her to walk into. But as she weaves her own web of deceit, she collides with Commander Lu Shiyan, the one man she fears most. He is the Emperor's most ruthless hound, a master of strategy who sees through her every act. Yet, instead of destroying her, he seems... intrigued. He watches her, tests her, and offers her a single, cryptic Go stone-an invitation to a game far more dangerous than she could ever imagine. In a gilded cage of power, lies, and shifting allegiances, Shen Mingshu will use her wits and the whispers of her hairpin to dismantle an empire of corruption from within. She died as a victim; she will live as a queen.

When Zhao Xiu enters the gilded cage, which is the imperial harem, her only plan is to survive. Everything changes when the Emperor quickly falls in love with her. Taking advantage of this, she strives not only to survive the harem but to win the game of power her family has been long entangled with.

When Lu Beibei realized that she was actually a supporting female character in a period drama, she was discussing her divorce with Bian Chu. According to the original plot, she is about to abandon her husband and children and, relying on her beauty, madly seduce the professor who has just returned from abroad in the next alley. Unfortunately, the professor only likes her sister, and her sister will marry Bian Chu in the future.

However, her two children, left unattended, died of accidental poisoning while sleeping in a coal-burning house.

Even if it's ugly, it's still her child. Who knows, it might turn out cute after being raised for a while? Bian Chu asked: Why do you want a divorce? Do you think I'm useless? Lu Beibei, holding the children, cried her eyes out: "No, it's because you're so successful! You'll be famous all over the country! You'll even find my children a stepmother! After the divorce, the children will stay with me! My cousin will stay with you!" Bian Chu's eyes, which had been cold since their marriage, suddenly turned into a deep pool of water. He thought she looked down on him, but he never expected... But what's with this "cousin" thing? He patted her head and said gently, "Let's not get divorced, okay? I'll work hard to become famous, and I'll always only be good to you and the children." Lu Beibei: ? A cool rock veteran × A hot mom who's also cool after her awakening
