The day Shili Hongzhuo married into the palace, Shen Zhiyi knew that the marriage was a deal.
After three years of forbearance, she paved the way for Chu Yi's power, but all she got in exchange was cold demands and indifference.
Until he triumphantly brought back a dancing girl from a foreign land and performed songs every night, but he asked her to use her dowry to support his new love.
Shen Zhiyi handed over a piece of paper and a letter of departure: "Return the dowry, farmland, and the death-free gold medal in your hand."
Chu Yi sneered: "Does the daughter of a businessman deserve a gold medal to avoid death?"
She tore He Lishu into pieces in front of him: "Come to me when the prince figures it out."
Three days later, Chu Yi led his cavalry to surround the Shen Mansion, only to see the legendary cruel and bloodthirsty new king of Bei Yan gently putting on his robe:
"Miss Shen, have you considered it? Come back with me -"
"I will give you half of my kingdom."
From then on, the abandoned concubine became famous all over the world.
She rectified the imperial court with business methods, calmed the wars of the Three Kingdoms with wisdom, and finally stood at the top of power, overlooking the mountains and rivers side by side with the emperor.
And the man who once despised her could only look at her in the queen's gorgeous clothes from afar, leaving the most painful regret in the history books:
"The biggest mistake I made in this life was to let go of this only light."
He once thought that what he had locked was a canary, but he didn't know that when he let go, what he let go would be a phoenix that would soar for nine days in the future.
