The red walls of the deep palace seem to have no end in sight, just like my ruined life, the indifference of my father, the disgust of my husband, and the unbearable past. If you were still here, mother and concubine, maybe I would be better off. Maybe there are people in this world who love me, but I have done nothing wrong. It's just that I was born in an imperial family. Outsiders envy the luxury of the palace, but I envy their freedom...
