About The Prince's Shadow
The young scholar Gao Sheng (Zheng Shaoqiu), who was proud of his youth, was appreciated by Emperor Yongzheng, and was finally appointed as Hongli, who was later accompanied by Emperor Qianlong. In the Forbidden City, it takes more than 20 years to stay high. It was the emperor's companion, and he also solved the big and small things for Emperor Qianlong. However, Qianlong was jealous of Gaosheng and was outstanding in learning, so Gaosheng did not have an official position, but he was comfortable. The new imperial lady Ruyi (played by Yang Yi) was quite popular with the emperor, but she kept holding on to her humble status and the majesty of the queen.
