However, she quickly discovers that the system is rigged against women, forcing them into subservient roles. The narrative explores themes of power, control, and social injustice. Wu Zetian's relationships with Li Shimin, a powerful but troubled pilot, and Yizhi, a wealthy young man, become central to her journey.
