A Guide to Advancing in the Deep Palace

This drama tells the story of Meng Erniang, the first gynecological expert in the capital. After delivering a baby for Lady Li, the imperial concubine in the palace, she was killed because she saw the imperial concubine's privacy. Her daughter Meng Xuezhao entered the palace to seek justice for her mother five years later. During these five years, Meng Xuezhao formed an alliance with the families of other victims who were innocently killed by the imperial concubine. They jointly designed to expose the imperial concubine's crimes step by step. When Meng Xuezhao first entered the palace, she used her wisdom to make a transparent crystal hairpin and wanted to present it to the imperial concubine, but it was snatched and presented by the showy Kong Mama. At the subsequent palace banquet, the hairpin gathered light and burned the imperial concubine's hair. In a fit of anger, the imperial concubine sent Kong Mama away. And Kong Mama was the one who showed loyalty and killed Meng Erniang five years ago. After that, Meng Xuezhao was favored by the emperor because of her outstanding appearance and docile personality, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the virtuous imperial concubine. In order to show herself in front of the emperor, the virtuous imperial concubine often deducted the monthly rations of the servants and was cruel. She wanted to disfigure Meng Xuezhao, but was outwitted by Meng Xuezhao and was disliked by the emperor. The out-of-favor imperial concubine found Mu Qianqian to compete for favor with her. This seemingly valiant woman was actually mean and vicious, and she was sent to the cold palace as a result of her own doing. Finally, Meng Xuezhao finally discovered the evidence of Lady Li's crime and completely exposed it in front of the emperor. The long-awaited injustice was finally avenged. Meng Xuezhao also became the empress. Under her governance, the harem was fair in rewards and punishments. With her help, the people of the Great Yan Dynasty lived and worked in peace and contentment.
