From the first meeting at a glance in the pear blossom forest in the cold palace, to the reunion in the study, and then from no love, to deep love, to eight years of separation. He was clearly being persecuted, but he refused to tell the truth. He just endured it. He protected so many people, but he failed to protect himself.
Obviously knowing that the other party is a high-ranking king, knowing clearly that he cannot give her a lifetime, knowing clearly that "the palace gate is as deep as the sea, the most ruthless emperor's home" and "accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger", but he still has no hesitation, falling in love like a moth to the flame, until he falls in hell, he falls from heaven to hell, he is just passing through the world in a hurry.
In fact, the lofty king is the loneliest person in the world. He is the most insecure and the most imprisoned. He cannot love the people he loves as he wants, cannot be devoted, or even have feelings. Because he carries too much on his back, the country, the country, and the country... Once he loves, it will be a kind of destruction, love, and harm to the person he loves. After the loss, after knowing the truth, I feel endless regret, but the damage has been done... In fact, once a person's heart is burdened with too many things, he will no longer have the energy to bear the weight of love.
