She saved his life, gave him a new beginning, and raised him to adulthood,

but when their love grew deep, she married another man.

He willingly became her male companion, staying by her side and enduring every humiliation.

A faked death broke her heart;

when he finally made his move, he trampled the imperial city and took her prisoner, making her his sole empress.

“I rebelled not for the world, but for you.”

From a bird in her palm, to a prisoner at her feet, to the one and only in her heart,

a winding journey of love and hate, obsession and passion, comes to this:

You raised me when I was young; I'll cherish you for the rest of your life.
