After the British and French allied forces burned down the Old Summer Palace, they forced the cowardly and mediocre Qing government to sign a series of unequal treaties. It was extremely arrogant in China. The timid Qing Emperor Xianfeng (Liang Jiahui) hid in the Rehe Palace. Apart from the Queen (Chen Ye), the concubines who often hang around Xianfeng include Concubine Li (Zhou Jie) and Concubine Yi (Liu Xiaoqing). Concubine Yi tries her best to please Xianfeng, but Concubine Li is obviously more favored by Xianfeng. thirty On his birthday, Xianfeng suddenly fell seriously ill. On his deathbed, the minister Suqing (Xiang Kun), who was interested in usurping the throne and seizing power, saw that Concubine Yi was very scheming, and privately suggested that Concubine Yi should be killed and a young ruler be established. He felt it was reasonable, and after realizing that Qing Qing had evil intentions, he orally ordered him and seven other ministers to serve as regents to assist the young master, and granted the seal of "Tongdaotang" to Concubine Yi, and urged her and the queen to work together to raise the young master. During the funeral of Xianfeng, Qingqing gave the empress and concubine Yi the emblems of Ci'an and Cixi in an attempt to trick them into taking power, but he never defeated Cixi. After cleaning up, Cixi did not let Ci'an go.
