Everyone thought An Lingrong was the most obedient pawn in the empress’s hands.
She knelt on the bricks of Jingren Palace, her forehead pressed to the cold golden floor. Her voice was as soft as a breeze in spring: “Whatever Your Majesty says, this concubine will do.”
Seated high on her phoenix throne, the empress looked down at her with a satisfied smile. What an obedient girl.
But little by little, the empress began to sense that something was wrong.
The woman kneeling at her feet had begun to devour every inch of her with her gaze, to entwine herself around each beat of her heart with every breath. An Lingrong looked at her not with submission, but with hunger.
The empress tried to run, and An Lingrong pursued her all the more fiercely.
The empress tried to take control, and An Lingrong willingly let herself be controlled, only to turn around and take control of her in return.
Two madwomen, beneath the red walls of the Forbidden City, weave a net of power and tears from which neither can escape.
