Shen Ling and Prince Li Xu fell in love at first sight through the vast crowd of people during a lantern festival. Li Xu obtained the imperial decree and married her as his concubine. After many battles, Li Xu ascended to the throne, but their relationship began to deteriorate. After Li Xu became emperor, he became sensitive, suspicious, cold and cold, and Shen Ling also saw through his hypocrisy, and the two began to be estranged. Finally, after much intrigue, Shen Ling's son succeeded to the throne. Shen Ling completed a series of transformations and growth throughout her life from young lady, crown prince's concubine, concubine, noble concubine, queen, and empress dowager.
Is it the world or her heart that he wants to control?
The deepest understanding occurs after love dies. We finally saw each other clearly and let each other go.
This is an "Introduction to the Emperor's Mental Technique" written in a woman's life. For beginners, the emperor is as tender as water and gentle and affectionate. For experienced players, the emperor has only one adjective: cold and heartless.
In fact, Shen Ling spent the first half of her life diligently studying the "Instructions for Grace", but "grace" was like an object, being given and taken away again and again. She finally woke up from being objectified and fully understood "Introduction to the Emperor's Mental Technique".
Regardless of the process, the ending of this story is satisfactory for Shen Ling, and also for Li Xu. But for the thorny emotions in Shen Ling and Li Xu's love, this is a complete tragedy.
Intention: Only you can be with yourself for the rest of your life.
