After Xue Gang borrowed troops and annihilated the Zhou dynasty, Emperor Zhongzong of Tang, Li Xian, successfully restored the Tang dynasty. However, Zhongzong Li Xian was not a wise emperor. After his successful restoration, he did not purge the descendants of the Wu family. Instead, he doted on Empress Wei and Princess Anle, Li Guo'er, which ultimately led to the rebellion of Empress Wei and Li Guo'er. During Empress Wei's reign of chaos, Xue Gang's wife, the Princess of Liang, Ji Luan Ying, was also taken to the execution ground and executed. The story begins with the execution of Ji Luan Ying. (For previous events, please refer to "Xue Men Female Generals: Ji Luan Ying").
After Ji Luan Ying was beheaded, Xue Gang secretly assisted Li Longji in eliminating the remnants of Empress Wei and Li Guo'er's rebellion. Li Longji's father, Emperor Ruizong of Tang, Li Dan, ascended the throne. After Li Dan's enthronement, he heavily relied on Princess Taiping. Princess Taiping, in collusion with her advisor Shangguan Wan'er, plotted to depose Li Longji from his position as crown prince. However, Li Longji preempted them, capturing Shangguan Wan'er and Princess Taiping in one fell swoop. At this point, the palace turmoil caused by Empress Wu's ascension to the throne finally came to an end. Li Longji then governed with diligence and reform, eradicating corruption and establishing the prosperous Kaiyuan era.
