In the fifteenth year of Yuanqi's reign, a palace incident occurred and the plum blossoms in the imperial garden were stained with blood. The ten-year-old daughter of a minister, Wen Yanran, was rescued by a silver-faced boy in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. A jade pendant with a dragon pattern became her only thought and comfort in the ten years of loneliness.
Ten years later, he became Xiao Moyan, the prince of the East Palace who was decisive in killing and possessing power. However, he forgot the bloody memory, only the vague plum fragrance and a jade pendant pattern remained in his dream. She became a down-and-out noble girl who was dependent on others and bullied by her stepmother. She relied on her unforgettable resourcefulness and her first-hand poison-healing skills to survive in the inner courtyard of a deep house.
A marriage contract forcibly binds two people whose destinies were already different. He wants to retrieve his lost memory, and she wants to find out the truth behind her mother's tragic death. A political marriage that seemed to have different agendas gradually deviated from the track in the whirlpool of red wall strife and cunning intrigues.
He protected her, pampered her, gave her supreme authority, and washed the court with blood for her. She helped him, conspired with him, settled the harem for him, and shared the power of the country with him.
When the scar under the silver surface overlaps with the old bloodstains on the cuffs, when the dragon-patterned jade pendant and half of the dragon-patterned button finally fit together, the words "Wait for me alive" buried in ten years of wind and snow finally echoed.
This is a legend that began with palace changes and ended in prosperity.
It is an epic story in which the emperor and the empress join hands, from the game of power to the unity of one heart and one mind.
Especially that sentence - "The country is the betrothal, the world is the matchmaker, I promise you and I, the plum shadow on the red wall knows each other."
