She is the only daughter of Princess Taiping, the granddaughter of Wu Zetian, and the close disciple of Shangguan Wan'er.
When she was seven years old, the Queen said, "This girl is like me." She became the most dazzling pearl of the empire. But her mother was defeated and executed. She fell into the abyss overnight and was supposed to die in that bloody autumn.
After lying dormant for several years, she changed her appearance and returned to Chang'an disguised as a man. Everyone thought she was here for revenge—to take revenge on the emperor who sent her mother to death, and on the palace that devoured her family.
Thirty years later, the monarch on the dragon throne finally looked at her.
But he didn't see hatred. What he saw was the same calmness and determination in the eyes of the empress who was sitting in the hall forty years ago.
What she wants is to live the life that they failed to live for all the women crushed by power - grandmother, mother, Aunt Wan'er, Yuhuan.
Then, everything returns to the white snow of Zhongnan Mountain...
Intention: Power is like a mirror, illuminating people's hearts; history is like sand, burying true names. A woman whose name was wiped out by the prosperous age has to walk out of the embers of blood and fire, and carve her own era in the blank space of history.
