I have seen twenty-five snowy winters in this palace.
The tall red wall blocks the fireworks from the world. The warmth of the young man who grew peaches under the pavilion in the past has long been worn away by the years in the palace, and only the wind and frost are left, hidden under the pearls and green brocade robes.
I used to think that love can last long and people's hearts can be warm. Later I learned that in the cold winter in the palace, every step is hindered, and everything has a price. Family honor and disgrace, the overthrow of imperial power, and love entanglements are just chess games destined under the feudal system, and no one can be willful.
Purpose: This article takes the ups and downs of Dongxiang's life as the main line and unfolds the power chess game in the harem before and after the Forbidden City. A peach stone buried in the depth of winter secretly determines the life and death of a generation; the friendship of young people is shattered in the struggle of imperial power and the shackles of feudalism. Love and hate become a bargaining chip for power. Everyone is trapped in the shackles of obsession and fate, and ends up with what they fear and what they hate. The entanglements between emperors and concubines, court games, and the rise and fall of families are intertwined, depicting the struggle and destruction of the next generation in the feudal era. It reveals that there is no winner within the high walls of the palace, and all kinds of obsessions eventually become a piece of cake.
