“A beauty from Yuezheng, graceful and fair, dressed in water and crowned with mist; she has traversed the rough roads of life, a proud flower through generations of chaos.”
She has been a bookbinder's daughter, a courtesan, a descendant of a famous general, a prisoner, a maid, and a favored concubine.
Her path has twisted and turned at every step.
The innocent girl who once knew only love
has changed until even she barely recognizes herself.
She no longer knows what happiness is,
or even what meaning her life holds.
She is simply pushed onward by fate,
toward an unknown future.
What, in the end, awaits her?
He looked at her
as if seeing himself in a mirror.
Their souls were so much alike,
but she said calmly,
“So what?
The worlds you and I have seen are ultimately different.”
How could she be so calm?!
“You say you love me,
but that's only because we are so alike,
and yet so different.
If I truly entered your world,
there would be nothing left to set us apart,
and you would have no reason to love me.
That is our fate:
you already possess all under heaven,
but you cannot have love. That is an emperor's curse.”
Could she be right? Even if he kept her by his side,
would he still end up alone?
“Neither of us can escape that loneliness,
just as we both came into this world alone.”
On a whim, he placed a precious “shackle” around her.
But whose heart had he truly imprisoned?
