Scarlet Heart: Ryeo: A Lifetime of Peace

She cast aside her feminine finery and, though a young woman in the bloom of her youth, donned armor and went to war. A different kind of flower bloomed amid humiliation and mockery. A mask concealed her from the world's fantasies. Rumor had it she possessed peerless beauty, enough to captivate all under heaven. The mask was Heaven's curse upon her beauty, and she could never remove it for the rest of her life. She was a legend of Goryeo, an undefeated myth. Some said she was still alive. Some said she had long since gone to the frontier. Others said she had died long ago, leaving no trace. She was Goryeo's greatest. A female general who went to war, carried her sword before the emperor, and drew blood in the palace hall, she belonged to no faction. She was the first king from outside the royal clan, and the only woman ever to rule as king. In truth, she appeared in everyone's life. To him, too, she had never left his heart. She was born without tears, yet someone offered a handkerchief to wipe the tears she had never shed. He was born with a love of laughter, yet someone understood the pain behind his smile. They knew they were in love, but who could have guessed there would be so many obstacles between them? If loving you means losing you, then I would rather accept everything in your place as the one who loves you, and promise you a lifetime of peace. body{background:fixed url(https://timgsa.baidu.com/timg?image&quality=80&size=b9999_10000&sec=1489937268220&di=0684b3e0d6402d31afb5cbe278003a07&imgtype=0&src=http%3A%2F%2Fimg1.shenchuang.com%2F2016%2F0729%2F1469753667366.jpg) #FFCC33 repeat-x left top}
