"There is a maiden by the Han River, beyond reach and impossible to seek."
Everyone knew that Princess Ning'an was dazzlingly talented, peerless in the world. But the young woman who appeared at the banquet stirred more than the hearts of the Four Kingdoms and Five Fiefs.
"Why? Why can't the deep bond we shared since childhood compare to the few short days you spent together?"
Why? He didn't know either. Perhaps love only measures depth, not duration. Though he could not see her when they first met, her voice, like spring water, seemed to quench the drought in his heart.
"A Chen, our positions are simply different. I warned you."
Blame her? How could he bear to? He would take responsibility for all the consequences.
This was a gamble in a world torn by chaos, and a fated meeting between you and me.
"Princess Changyang, dare you make a wager with me? The prize is the realm."
"I was born a woman, not a man. Princess Ning'an, you and I are different."
But could she really escape just by deciding to run?
If escape was fated to be impossible, then through this mortal world of endless entanglements, I would do it all for him!
