Xie Wanwan had never been very bright. She had never imagined in her life that she might get the chance to enter the palace.
One day, an imperial decree summoned her to the palace. She smiled foolishly. “Father, Mother, brothers, I'll definitely become the emperor's favorite concubine. If you ever get sentenced to death, I'll make sure I save you.”
Life in the palace was dull. Shen Yu said, “Call me Brother Ayu, and I'll spoil you for the rest of your life.”
Xie Wanwan smiled and nodded.
Then, disaster struck without warning, and all of Xie Wanwan's joy came crashing down. She watched one woman after another leave, each consumed by sorrow.
Faced with everyone's departures and the heartless selfishness of the dog emperor, she lost all hope.
