The second volume of "The Story of a Concubine. The Legend of Zhen Huan", a series by Chinese writer Liu Lianzi, tells the story of a girl who made a great impression on the emperor during the selection and got into his harem. Now she will have to fight not only with other concubines for Xuanling's attention, but also with her own feelings.

The status of a concubine gave Zhen Huan not only privileges, but also brought serious danger into her life, so she seeks to enlist the support of loyal allies. The girl helps concubine An gain the favor of the sovereign, but begins to experience emotions that are not allowed for concubines.

Zhen Huan needs to be careful, because the fight for the love of the emperor is like walking on hot coals: painful, dangerous and you never know which step will be the last.

The series "The Story of a Concubine. The Legend of Zhen Huan is full of colorful descriptions of the culture and life of that period; there is a connection with the Dream of the Red Chamber, one of the four classic Chinese novels. Liu Lianzi read it as a child and transferred many of its motifs to her own works.

It will appeal to fans of the novellas "Amazing at Every Step" and "The Conquest of Yanxi Palace". The drama "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was filmed based on the novella.
