Xiao Qiangzi’s Rise to Power
By a twist of fate, Xiao Qiangzi enters the palace and swiftly becomes the Emperor’s favorite. Despite the palace being filled with beautiful concubines, the Emperor finds himself inexplicably drawn to this ordinary eunuch, sparking rumors throughout the court. Xiao Qiangzi’s wit and talent, and with the Emperor’s support, Xiao Qiangzi gradually rises to the position of commander of the Thousand Feathers Army, wielding enough power to sway the course of events.
Suspicious Encounter and a Blossoming Romance
Yan Chang Yun, harboring suspicions about Xiao Qiangzi’s true identity based on clues from the botched assassination mission, seeks to bring her under his control. His initial tactic of coercion eventually softens as he starts to genuinely care for Xiao Qiangzi. With his irresistible “handsome man strategy” in full effect, Yan Chang Yun eventually captures Xiao Qiangzi’s heart.
Unearthing the Past: A Hilarious Quest for Memory Recovery
Determined to help Xiao Qiangzi regain her lost memories, Yan Chang Yun embarks on a series of unconventional methods. From acupuncture and spinning wheels to shock stimuli and scene reconstruction, he employs increasingly hilarious techniques to jog her memory. Despite his enthusiastic efforts, Xiao Qiangzi’s memory recovery proves to be a slow and comedic process.
Unraveling Secrets and Choosing Love Over Power
As they navigate the court cautiously, old mysteries are finally unraveled. When all is said and done, they choose to leave behind power and fame, opting for a quiet life in seclusion, spending their days together.
