Episode 27 recap: "Zhao Ruoqi became the queen."
Now with both personal and material evidence, the sage banished the queen to the cold palace, deposing her from her position and interrogating all the imperial physicians. On the cold palace side, Zhao Ruoqi came to see the queen and revealed her identity, and the queen was astonished to learn that she had not died. Zhao Ruoqi expressed that it was the queen herself who had chosen her to enter the palace. The queen believed that this was her retribution, but she had no regrets. Zhao Ruoqi did everything for her own family, just as the queen did everything for the Liang family.
After Zhao Ruoqi left, the maidservants were also delighted, stating that Zhao Ruoqi had finally achieved her goal, and the sage's health was gradually improving. Zhao Ruoqi was summoned by the empress dowager, who recognized her intelligence and cleverness, and asked if she would be willing to cooperate. Now that the position of the queen was vacant, if Zhao Ruoqi agreed, the empress dowager would help her advance further.
Zhao Ruoqi declined, as she had more important things to do. The sage had already issued an edict to exonerate the Su family. Zhao Ruoqi returned to the courtyard she had been in before, observing the desolate scene and reflecting on the fact that she had finally accomplished what she set out to do. The sage came to find Zhao Ruoqi, stating that he had fulfilled her wish and asked if there was anything else she wanted to do.
Zhao Ruoqi chose to return to the palace with the sage, and the sage was also delighted. From then on, Zhao Ruoqi became a virtuous queen. (End of the entire drama)
