On the day she dedicated the city, the wind and snow were so heavy that she could not see the road.
A "young man" who was so thin that he was out of shape, riding an old horse with sunken ribs, carried more than 7,000 lives and a poison that was ready to be swallowed at any time.
He gave her a piece of warm jade, a staff position, and the most dangerous trust in the world.
Everyone said that the coach was crazy, but only he knew clearly that what he wanted was a knife that could cut through troubled times.
She calmed down the arrogant soldiers, established food routes, and promoted new laws for him, and she was more ruthless than anyone else in the army.

They never tell each other, but they understand each other better than anyone else.
She knew that on the surface he was kind and generous, but on the inside he was as sinister as the abyss. He knew that on the surface he was deferential but on the other hand, he had nothing to lose.
The two cooperated seamlessly in court and on the battlefield, but each held a knife in the dark that could kill the other at any time.

"Guan Tianyi, have you ever regretted it in your life?"
"I regret it. I regret not telling you the Achilles' heel earlier."
On the day when the world was unified, she hung up her crown and left.
A few years later, having ascended to the throne as emperor, he paid a private visit incognito and found the familiar figure teaching in the private school.
"Sir, could you please take a moment to speak?"
"What do you do for this distinguished guest?"
He smiled and took out a piece of faded dragon-patterned warm jade from his sleeve.
"Looking for a wild and untamable horse."
