   "Undercurrent under the clear sky: The shadow of the geese in Ziao City that year hid the disaster that she could not escape in her life." The sky she looked up looked like jasper crushed by the gods, so blue that it made people's hearts tremble. In the autumn of the twelfth year of Qianyuan's reign, the autumn wind blew through the red wall, and the wild geese fluttered their wings and flew past the nine-layered palace, but not a single wing was willing to stay for her. "When you enter the palace, you step on the auspicious clouds and step into the cage." She was sixteen years old that year, her embroidered shoes were stained with the unmelted morning dew, and the corner of her skirt swept over the first fallen leaf on the white marble steps. She thought that the deep palace was just a scroll of meticulous paintings of ladies, but she didn't know that the parrot in the corridor had already cried out all its blood for her, and the bronze crane in the corner of the palace had already held half of her soul in its mouth. Later she understood: The brilliant skylight can illuminate the glazed tiles of Ziao City, but it cannot illuminate the murderous intention of a game of chess; the sound of the formation of wild geese can fly across thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, but cannot fly beyond the four red walls. The people I love most leave one after another, leaving her alone. It is a very special feeling to read the novel after watching the TV series version. "Click to read: See how Zhen Huan went from a clear jade sky to a storm that no one can avoid."
