In the third year of Yong'an in Daliang, Concubine Jiang Guifei, who was favored by the sixth palace, was thrown into the cold palace overnight. There was no interrogation, no defense, and she didn't even see the emperor for the last time - a forged secret letter of collaboration with the enemy, which made her fall from the clouds into the mire.
After three years in the cold palace, she suffered from frostbite on her hands and was as skinny as a stick. What she waited for was not the emperor's change of heart, but a bowl of "dispelling cold soup" mixed with arsenic.
But she also has the only skill in the world - Qi Kung Fu.
She created a perfect fake death, escaped from the palace wall in front of everyone's eyes, traveled thousands of miles to the frontier, and transformed into the female shopkeeper of Wanggui Tower. She brewed three kinds of wine: Hongyanzui, Bianguanyue, and Wangchuan Water. Hidden in every bowl of wine is her journey of death and rebirth.
She thought she could stay anonymous and stay away from all pain. But the imperial mausoleum collapsed and the secret escape route was exposed. Emperor Chu Qian personally chased her to the frontier - just to see her one last time.
The truth of that year finally emerged: he knew that the secret letter was false, he knew that she was wronged, and he just needed her to "sacrifice" for three years to help him bring down the powerful officials.
He thought she would wait. But she waited in the cold palace until her heart died, she waited until she faked her death, and she never wanted to look back.
When they met again in Yongning Temple, she didn't cry or make a fuss. She just looked into his eyes calmly and said, "You are not me. You don't know how much it hurts me when I was slapped in the cold palace."
She chose freedom. He chose Jiangshan.
Many years later, she received the last news from him on his sick bed, but she did not go to see him for the last time.
Not hate. For some people, not seeing them is the best farewell.
