    [Bloodstained Rouge: Mengwa's "Willow by the Palace Walls," where tears of rouge in the deep palace forge a phoenix's bones!] Vermilion walls and black tiles imprison beauties, the nine-layered palace buries innocence. On the day fourteen-year-old Xiao Liu'er was pushed into the Taiye Pond, her crystal world collapsed—the palace was a luxurious hell, the copper bells on the eaves ringing with a cannibalistic sound. Mengwa uses a knife as a pen to dissect the brocade of the palace, revealing that beneath the smiles of three thousand beauties lay only stark white bones. [A heart-wrenching masterpiece of the year! Millions of readers lament for "Xiao Liu'er"] They say the sisters in the deep palace are like vines entwined, but who knows the poisonous needles forged in the rouge-scented intoxication! See how the Jiangnan embroiderer uses gold thread to embroider a death warrant, how the Northern Frontier princess hides a cold blade in her whirling dance, and even the most dull-witted scholar knows how to use almond tea to kill hearts. And Xiao Liu'er, called the "substitute," insists on turning her shadow into a raging fire amidst the bloodshed. [The Pinnacle of Substitute Literature × A Swan Song of Female Awakening] "You only need to resemble her three-tenths." The emperor's fingertips crushed a crabapple blossom, yet in Xiao Liu'er's eyes, he glimpsed the light of bygone years. She concealed her sharp edges, feigning naivety, weaving a web of schemes against each other. When the phoenix crown crushed the last tear, the entire court realized with shock: the most deadly thing in the deep palace was never the white moonlight, but the chess player who branded the cinnabar mole into their heart's blood! [A Phenomenal Masterpiece with a 9.8 rating on Tomato] The author pierces the sweet illusion of palace intrigue novels with a pen as sharp as a cleaver. Here, there are schemes more insidious than in *The Legend of Zhen Huan*, emotional wounds more profound than in *Scarlet Heart*, and a female alliance more shocking than any other palace intrigue novel. Twenty-six imperial concubines, twenty-six different kinds of bloodshed: a deposed concubine in the cold palace writes her last poem with a broken hairpin, a Mongolian noblewoman burns away the emperor's favor with strong liquor, and Xiao Liu'er stands before the steps of the Phoenix Palace, laughing lightly: "I want these red walls to no longer confine the souls of women." ◆Tear Gland Warning◆ You will weep for the half-jade pendant guarded by the white-haired palace maid, you will suffocate at the faded sachet clutched tightly before the imperial concubine's death, and your blood will surge when Xiao Liu'er tears up the "substitute edict"!
