Rising Toward the Bright Moon

In a single day, she became dust, scattered like smoke.

To scrape by, she hides away in a remote mountain village, thinking she can live out the rest of her days in peace. She never realizes she's long been under someone else's control.

The trees may wish for stillness, but the wind will not cease.

There is nowhere to hide and no way to retreat.

Like a fish swept along by the current, she finds herself surrounded by stormy seas, no matter where she turns.

Amid the tangled schemes, only one sincere heart lets her glimpse a ray of warmth.

Behind the web of conflicting powers, desire and self-interest intertwine, while the human heart is as unfathomable as an abyss.

The court's political landscape shifts in an instant, and warfires blaze along the border.

Blood feuds between families and suspicion within the palace lie before her.

In the darkness, the choice is yours.

Yet however harsh the world may be, Lu Buting wants you to know:

To journey through life in hesitation is like sailing through a dark night, but my heart will always face the bright moon!
