Su Yutang has only waited for one person in his life.
From the age of six to eighteen, from childhood sweethearts to the bride and groom, all her joys and tears were tied to Shen Yian.
He said that when the border was peaceful, he would take her to see the peach blossoms outside Chang'an City.
Later he went off to war and never came back.
An edict, collaborating with the enemy and treason, is despised by thousands of armies. Holding her belly that was about to give birth, she ran and shouted in the wind and snow, trying to plead for his innocence.
But she didn't wait.
That snowy night, she gave birth to his child, and also waited for the news of his death.
"Shen Yian, you lied to me."
She didn't cry, she just smiled softly and closed her eyes.
Many years later, the injustice was brought to light, and General Zhonglie was granted the title of Marquis of Zhenbei. People all over the city lined the streets to welcome him, but what they received back was only a white skeleton, a letter in blood, and an old piece of clothing.
People say that General Shen held a crabapple hairpin before his death, facing Chang'an, and would not rest in peace until his death.
They didn't know that he personally put the hairpin on her on her eighteenth birthday.
The peach blossoms in Chang'an City bloom year after year.
But the boy who wanted to show her flowers and the girl who was waiting for him could never come back.
Purpose: Loyalty is immortal, innocence will eventually be revealed. The most painful thing in the world is not being able to see the person you protect each other with your life until you die.
