Hanshan was a flower blooming high on a lonely peak.
He was brilliantly talented and as handsome as Pan An. He came first in the imperial examinations at sixteen, and in only five years rose to become a second-rank official and the emperor's trusted confidant.
Every noblewoman was infatuated with him.
Su Ruo, the youngest daughter of the Left Chancellor, was no different. She fell for him at first sight, and by the second, her love had taken root. She was determined to marry no one else.
At last, she got her wish, but Hanshan treated her like an enemy and despised her utterly.
On their wedding night, he swept out of the room, leaving Su Ruo alone to spend the night by herself.
He, meanwhile, spent the whole night in his study. They said he held an old purse in his hands the entire time, embroidered with a duck.
It was terribly ugly, but the man treasured it like a priceless object.
The Left Chancellor's entire family was massacred. Amid the flames, Su Ruo saw that face.
The face she would never forget, even in death. He seemed to be rushing toward her, calling, "Ruo Ruo!"
Su Ruo pushed him away and threw herself into the fire.
They say Hanshan went mad after that.
He willingly became the emperor's blade.
Countless lives fell to his hand.
At last, a mountain of bones paved the way to his throne.
On the first day of his reign, he made Su Ruo, his first wife, empress.
When Su Ruo was young, she rescued a blood-soaked boy.
He was as handsome as Pan An, but rather cold, especially those bloodthirsty eyes of his, red as could be.
Later, Su Ruo returned to the Su residence with her mother and never saw him again.
The next time they met was on her wedding night, when he became her husband.
She was overjoyed.
But his heart could not be warmed. It was as hard as iron.
He killed her parents and wiped out her entire clan.
She ran into the flames, thinking she could end it all and never see him again.
She never imagined that when she opened her eyes, she would be back on the day she first rescued him.
Seeing the boy lying in the rain, covered in blood, she steeled herself and turned away.
She would never save him again. Let him die in pain, for all she cared.
Unbeknownst to her, the boy opened his eyes and gazed at her, silently calling, "Ruo Ruo..."
In this life, let me be the one to love you.
