I married the son of the enemy who destroyed my family, but my brother raised an army for me and destroyed his empire.
We love each other, but the world scolds us for not caring about human relations.
They don't understand - what my brother and I wanted to burn was never the dragon throne, but the cannibalistic imperial power.
After a dance at the palace banquet, the plum blossom birthmark on my shoulder was exposed. The new emperor Xiao Che called me into the palace: "Be my concubine, and I will let your brother live a few more days."
To protect him, I thanked him with tears.
But Xiao Che's killer moves came one after another - he gave the princess my beloved in marriage.
On the wedding night, he burst into my bedroom with red eyes: "Zhixia, I'll take you away!"
But I pushed him away in the coldest tone: "General Gu, please come back. You are the husband of the princess, and I am the emperor's concubine."
Later I learned that it was Xiao Che's father who burned my mother and concubine to death. He kept me just to crush us brother and sister together in the future.
Love is the original sin? Then I will use sin as fire.
I am weaving a web in the deep palace, while he is hiding in the frontier.
On the eve of the palace change, I sent out the last secret letter, which contained only five words:
"Kill the king, brother."
Until I climbed up to the city tower in white clothes, broke up the blood feud in public, and jumped - using my life to pave a bloody road for him.
Later, he learned the news of his death and his hair turned gray overnight.
Later, he held high my blood-stained flag and fought back, burning the golden palace where I once knelt to ashes.
The history books only record that the new emperor abolished the six palaces, left his post vacant, and never established one in his lifetime.
No one knows that every year in the twelfth lunar month, he will climb alone on the tower where I fell, and sit in front of a solitary lamp until dawn.
-Brother, I will give you the peace and prosperity you want with my life.
-The me you want is waiting for you to meet again in the ashes
