Wei Wanwan was at first a small palace maid, working as an errand boy in the Sizhiku, because her lover Ling Yunche took good care of Ruyi in the Cold Palace, and after Ruyi left the Cold Palace, she promoted Ling Yunche, and after Ling Yunche had the opportunity to save money, Wei Wanwan successfully transferred away from the Sizhi Treasury and served as an errand boy in the arrogant Jin Yuyan Palace, and Jin Yuyan humiliated and bullied her.
Therefore, Wei Wanwan vowed to change her fate, because her appearance was somewhat similar to Ruyi,so she used means to make Qianlong notice herself and became Wei Promised. Although he succeeded in becoming a concubine of Qianlong, he was in a low position and was often bullied by the concubines of various palaces because of his means, so he tried his best to give birth to a prince and consolidate his position.
Wei Wanwan misunderstood that Ruyi let her take the dodge soup, so she opened the road to frame Ruyi for the throne. After successively killing Ruyi's son and daughter, framing her former lover Ling Yunche and Ruyi, and killing the fifth brother Yongqi to marry Ruyi, Wei Wanwan successfully ascended to the throne, replacing Ruyi and becoming the most valuable woman in the Forbidden City.
In the novel "Ruyi Zhuan", Wei Wanwan successfully forced Ruyi to die, but the ending on the TV series was adapted. TV series adapted from novels are subject to criticism if the ending is changed, but the ending of "Ruyi Zhuan" has become the expectation. Ruyi finally broke out, joining hands with Zhen Huan and Hailan to unveil the true face of Wei Wanwan.
After Qianlong learned the truth, he injected poison into Wei Wanwan and let her be tortured day and night. Before Wei Wanwan died, she asked Qianlong, "If you don't have any feelings for me, then why have you spoiled me for so many years?" Qianlong replied, "The reason is that you look similar to my Ruyi, but you are more docile than her." Now it seems that no matter how similar you are to her, it is not her, your poisonous mind, insulting this face of yours."
