In the heart of a fictional empire inspired by Imperial China, the Inner Palace breathes like a city within a city: scented gardens, labyrinthine pavilions, and a protocol as meticulous as it is ruthless. Here, educated concubines, eunuchs with political power, servants holding the gears of daily life, and high-ranking officials measuring every gesture live side-by-side. The court is a board of intrigue where imperial favor, etiquette, and rumors can cure you... or ruin you.
