In the twenty-sixth year of Tianyuan, it was a light rainy spring. Gu Lingxi came from Nanzhao as an illegitimate daughter.
In an unfamiliar environment and strict dogma, she relied on the favor of the third prince to live freely and worry-free in the royal capital.
People in the world were moved by her beauty, innocence and kindness, and compared her to the most beautiful poppy in Chen country.
Shen Yu often sees white deer and hears the crisp sound of bells in his dreams. The past events in the dense forests of Nanzhao became the shackles and fetters of his life.
He had evil intentions, and he approached Gu Lingxi with purpose. At the same time, he was kind, giving her the greatest tolerance and favor, making her the freest butterfly in the cage of the royal capital.
But when the dust-laden secrets were revealed, and the sudden truth came to light, the love Shen Yu once gave her burned her limbs like fire, and became the final murder weapon to kill Gu Lingxi in this huge cage.
Maybe one day Shen Yu will remember what he said when he met Gu Lingxi——
"My name is Shen Yu, whose name is Zimu. I have longed for the girl for a long time."
Intent: The struggle for royal power
