Mo Luan was a girl from the mountains until Bai Yi, son of the Marquis of Fengyang, brought her to his estate and adopted her as his younger sister. From then on, she was swept into the factional struggle to seize power as a dying dynasty teetered on the brink of collapse. One was an innocent girl; the other, a favored son of Heaven. As they lived under the same roof, they fell for each other, but neither was master of their own fate. Again and again, they missed their chance. Bai Yi married a princess, while Mo Luan entered the palace. What Mo Luan never expected was that the man she loved was a cunning wolf. What she had thought was a heaven-sent encounter was, in fact, the beginning of a conspiracy. Faced with the chill of the imperial palace on one side and the cruelty of the truth on the other, where will this gentle-looking yet strong-willed woman turn...
A virtuous consort founds a nation; a favored beauty brings it to ruin. After its fall, she founds it anew. A legendary woman, they loved for a lifetime and misunderstood one another for all of it.
A blue luan descends from the heavens, crying out beneath the purple stars. The cold pool is desolate, the ninth heaven mourns. Alas, her wishes and her fate run counter.
Her delicate hands once covered the sky, yet in the end she weeps. The phoenix's flight toward the throne begins with its wings spread. From the heights of the mountains and rivers, the cold is too much to bear.
