Emperor Zhaowu of the Xiliang Kingdom died on a snowy night in winter, and what he took away with him was a lingering and pathos-filled love affair and a conspiracy that ended in vain.
The emperor and empress Yun Zhao drank a glass of poisonous wine together and wanted to follow the late emperor, but they were saved by Ye Kongxiao, the prince of Yiyue.
After waking up, Yun Zhao completely forgot all his past thoughts.
The throne is vacant, the court is full of strife, the country is founded by Luo Yue in the midst of war, heroes from all over the world meet, and the country of Xiliang is in turmoil.
A relative of the Qing Dynasty, Zheng Chao Gang, the Xiliang Emperor and Empress, known by the world as gentle and cowardly, smiled at Yan Yan from behind the beaded curtain in the deep court, and set the stage for the chess game of this troubled world.
A treasure left in the ocean, a beauty with withered bones, when the layers of fog of memory dissipated, this body was actually a chess piece set by oneself.
And how does the man who is always by her side face the tragic past with her? Ten fingers intertwined on the cliff to share life and death, listening to the music of the piano around the stove in the cold winter night, supporting each other and planning the world when they are surrounded by enemies. When all the truth is analyzed and exposed, this heart sinks, whether it can only end in life and death.
And when the emperor of Xiliang, who had been buried in a thick mausoleum, recalled the past, he had always been waiting for him with affection and tenderness, and the separation between heaven and man became a disaster that she could no longer overcome. Even if thousands of sails pass by, her memory is like shackles, like a swamp, like a cobweb, she only wants to surround herself step by step.
If I would see you again, it would be years later. How will I pay my respects, with silence, with tears.
"You gave me a glass of poisonous wine that day, and I returned it in full." She tilted her head slightly and looked at him with a smile, just like when they first met him many years ago.
