I first met Shen Yujin when I was three, and I never forgot him.
He told my father he would marry me and take me to the Central Plains.
From then on, I, an eagle who once soared freely across the grasslands, willingly became a bird in his cage.
But I never expected that one remark from the princess would make him
turn around and send me to the stables to break horses.
Five years later, he rose to the highest ranks, while I suffered endless torment.
And yet he wanted to marry me and bring me into the palace, promising me a wedding procession stretching for miles.
With tears in my eyes, I demanded:
“Don’t you know I love you?”
