There are ninety-nine plum trees blooming in Yongning Palace, and each one contains a secret.
On the day Emperor Zhaoming succeeded to the throne at the age of five, he took out the ice-cracked porcelain piece left by his mother. The porcelain shard was sharp and cut his finger, but he didn't know that this drop of blood was destined to be entangled with another person until death.
Princess Jingyu is his half-sister. Ever since she learned to walk, she would only follow behind her royal brother. When he reviewed memorials, she lay beside him and traced the red lines; when he went to court, she hid behind the screen and peeked; when he went on patrol incognito, she dressed as a little eunuch and had to follow him life and death.
Later, the emperor's brother married Wang Jin, who wore a red string on his wrist, in accordance with his mother's last wish.
On the eve of the wedding, Jing Yu asked: "Do you love her?"
Zhaoming was silent.
Jing Yu asked again: "Then do you love me? It's not between a brother and a sister, but between a man and a woman..."
Zhaoming remained silent.
Jing Yu never saw him again.
Until the day she died of illness, Zhaoming carried her on his back. The Queen Mother once walked on the ninety-nine jade steps of Yongning Palace on her father's knees.
And Zhaoming carried Jingyu on his back and walked up level by level.
"The road to hell is cold. Brother Huang will carry you on his back."
Intention: The plum blossoms in Yongning Palace have been blooming for three hundred years. Each flower is a word that cannot be said. Jing Yu asked the emperor two questions. Zhao Ming only dared to tell the answers to these two questions when Jing Yu was dying, but it was already too late.
